OPERATION
Handling Tires
�
Do not let fuel, oil, salt or chemical solvents
get on the tires. These substances may
corrode the tires and wheels, resulting in
rust or peeling. If these substances should
get on the tires, wipe them off immediately
using water.
�
Traveling on roads directly after asphalting
or on hot surfaces such as over fires or
on iron sheets under strong sunlight may
result in irregular wear or damage of the
tread.
�
Do not move earth in places where the tires
may slip. Doing so may speed up tread
wear.
Tires have an inherent weakness due to their
use of rubber. Be sure to heed the prohibitions
and cautions below so as to prevent damage
to the tires.
Prohibited Actions
Do not travel or operate the machine in the
following places:
�
Traveling or slewing on broken stone,
jagged base rock, iron rods, iron scraps
or the edges of iron sheets may damage
or cut the tires.
�
Traveling on riverbeds or places with many
soft rocks may damage the tires.
�
Do not use on the seashore. The salt may
corrode the metal wheels.
