Servicing wheels and tyres
WARNING
Risk of accident! With uneven wear or incorrect air
pressure, the stability of the forklift truck decreases
and the braking distance increases.
– Replace worn or damaged tyres on the right and
left.
Checking air pressure
– Check and correct the air pressure at all four
wheels.
NOTE
The correct air pressure for pneumatic tyres
(special equipment) is based on the type of
tyres used. Observe the information on the
stickers (2) on your vehicle.
Checking condition and wear of the tyres
WARNING
Tyre quality affects the stability and handling of the
forklift truck.
Changes can only be made in consultation with the
manufacturer.
When changing wheels or tyres, always ensure
that this does not cause the forklift truck to tilt to one
side (e.g. always change right and left wheels at the
same time).
NOTE
The wear of the tyres on an axle must be ap-
proximately the same.
• The minimum tread depth (1) for pneumatic
tyres must be min. 1.6 mm in every area of
the tread.
• Super-Elastic tyres (special equipment) can
be worn down to the wear mark (4).
