● Place the kart on a trolley.
● Place the wheel on a tyre remover (OU942.002).
● Take the new tyre and grease the tyre (grease
LU823.003 (5)) in order to make assembly and removal
easier.
● Replace the tyre (2) on the valve side of the wheel rim (1)
ensuring the correct rotation direction.
● Once in place, strap your tyre with a belt when you inflate
more than 3 bars.
● Put the wheel back on the kart and tighten the nuts back
again securely.
● Adjust the pressure with a manometer (4) (OU943.002).
● Always change the whole set whenever a
tyre is changed (fronts, rears, or all the set).
● Always place the tyres so that they rotate in
the direction indicated on the tyre wall.
● Never inflate the tyres more than 4 bars.
● Excessive wear of tyres can result from bad
front wheel axle unit alignment.
● Use tyres with a grip adapted to your track.
●
Give worn tyres to a specialist of tyre treatment
according to local environmental regulation.
► Change all damaged rims. A damaged rim
may lead to a loss of tyre or loss of pressure
and may lead to a serious or even fatal injury.
► Check the tyre wear daily. Worn or damaged
tyres may lead to a serious or even fatal
injury.
► Never run with worn or damaged tyres: a
burst of tyre may lead to a serious or even
fatal injury.
► Always blow up tyre with the pressure
recommended by the manufacturer.
► Cold tyres have a reduced adherence, and
increase the loss of control of the kart. This
may lead to a serious or even fatal injury.
► Too much grip reduces the stability of the
kart under impact, and lead to a tendency to
go on two wheels. It also increases the risk
of riding over.
► Store tyres in an appropriate area to prevent
fire hazard.
► Never inflate above 4 bars: there is a risk of
severe injury due to potential failure of the
rim.
