Wheels and tyres
- Visually inspect each tyre for correct inflation. If the tyre
appears to be low in pressure, refer truck to maintenance.
Recommended air pressure must be maintained in every tyre.
Inflate to correct pressure (refer to sticker on mudguard) when
tyres are cold.
- Inspect tyres for uneven wear, chinks, or cuts.
- Inspect rims for damage and inspect lugnuts.
- To prevent damage, tyres must not be cleaned with a high
pressure steam jet.
- High ambient temperature causes higher tyre pressure. For this
reason reduce the top speed accordingly !
ATTENTION !
When changing a tyre, retighten wheel securing nuts after driving
a distance of 50 km.
Please refer to chassis manufacturers handbook for specified
tightening torque.
