420 MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
WHEELS
General
Due to the size, equipment needed and the procedures used to change wheels, this
should be done through the Volvo Truck dealer. By having an expert technician
perform this procedure, personal injury and property damage may be avoided.
Note:
When replacing the wheel equipment or tires, use the same size wheels or
tires as originally manufactured. Changing the tire or wheel size will affect brake
performance. If changing tire size, ABS and speedometer must be recalibrated.
Check Wheel Nuts Torque
DANGER
Failure to properly tighten the wheel
nuts can result in the breakage of wheel
studs and the subsequent loss of wheels.
Loss of vehicle control and serious
personal injury or death can occur.
Check all wheel nuts torque after the first 80 to 160 km (50 to 100 miles) and the first
80 to 160 km (50 to 100 miles) after each tire service. This applies to both single and
dual wheels in connection with normal service but should be performed at least every
six months.
The torque check is particularly important when rims or brake drums are newly
painted. Paint can flake off from these surfaces, causing the nuts to lose their grip and
the wheel to loosen.
See the Operator’s Manual Vehicle Maintenance for correct procedures on tightening
the wheel nuts.
