DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The wheel and rim is of welded construction and
consists of a hub assembly, inner and outer flange,
'O' ring, bead seat band and lock ring. The wheel is
mounted on the axle spindle with two tapered roller
bearings mounted in the hub.
The tyre and rim may be removed from the machine
as an assembly and transported to a more suitable
location for removing the tyre from the rim.
Procedures for removing tyre and rim assembly from
machine, and dismounting tyre from rim, the use of
hand, hydraulic, and special tools, are described in this
section.
When dismounting a tyre and rim assembly from the
machine, special equipment and careful handling are
required because of the size and weight of the tyres.
One of the following pieces of hoisting equipment
should be used to lift the tyre and rim: chain block and
tackle, overhead crane, fork lift truck, boom truck, or
tripod tyre changing tool.
PREPARATION FOR SERVICING
WARNING
Before performing any service on the tyres or
rim components, to prevent personal injury and
property damage, completely deflate the tyre by
removing the valve cap and core. Insert a thin
wire through valve to be sure valve is not
plugged. Even a flat tyre, in some cases, will
retain sufficient air pressure to blow off a rim
component with enough force to cause bodily
injury or death.
