CHAPTER 7 - Maintenance
Removal of the wheels
The wheels may only be replaced by qualifi ed and authorised technical personnel.
•
Handle all parts with the utmost care.
•
Do not place your hands, fi ngers and limbs between parts.
•
Wear safety clothing and approved PPE such as goggles, gloves and safety shoes.
•
Ensure the tyre is completely defl ated before starting removal.
•
Place the machine on a fl at surface and block it with the parking brake.
•
Place wedges under the wheels that remain in contact with the ground.
Before proceeding with any subsequent operation, completely defl ate the tyre, also removing the middle body of the valve for more complete and
safer air removal.
With the wheel to be replaced still in contact with the ground, partially loosen its fi xing screws or nuts.
Then lift the machine until the wheel is suffi ciently detached from the ground and secure the trolley by placing it on adequate and stable supports.
Proceed with full removal of the wheel's screws or nuts and extract it from the hub.

•
Clean all coupling surfaces and protect them from rust.
•
Use a rubber mallet to assemble the parts.
•
Spread a solution of soap in water or specifi c grease for tyre fi tting on the rim groove and on the base of the tyre.
•
Never use petroleum based lubricants or antifreeze.
•
Ensure the rim is of suitable size for the wheel.
•
Lubricate the parts of the wheel in contact with the heel and the inner tube.
