Tire Maintenance
!
WARNING
Tire changing can be dangerous and should be preformed by
trained personnel using correct tools and equipment. When
removing and installing wheels, use wheel handling
equipment adequate for the weight involved.
!
WARNING
Always release all air pressure in air filled airplane tires
before removing hardware bolting their split rims together.
Not doing so can cause the split rims to blow apart instantly
and could resulting in serious injury or death.
!
WARNING
When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and extension hose
long enough to allow you to stand to one side and NOT in front
of or over the tire assembly. Use a safety cage if available. Do
not overinflate tires.
!
WARNING
Do not weld on or heat a rim. If a tire is mounted to the rim,
air pressure inside the tire can increase enough to cause an
explosion. High heat can also weaken and/or warp the rim,
damage the tire, and destroy foam filling inside a tire.
1.
Check tires for low air pressure, missing nuts,
missing lug bolts, wear, separated rubber, and bent,
broken, or cracked wheel rims.
2.
Inflate air filled tires to the proper pressure. Refer to
“Tire Inflation Chart” on page 42.
Refer to Figure 4-6:
3.
Replace wheel rims and tires as needed with
genuine Land Pride parts. Do not loosen split rim
hardware (#1) until all air pressure in the tire has
been removed.
