Tires
Your trailer is equipped at the factory with name brand
trailer tires. Most Airstream dealers cannot make
adjustments to tires. An Airstream or tire dealer that
handles that particular brand must do this. If you
experience tire problems, contact the nearest dealer.
Tire Changing
To change a tire with a jack, see the label affixed to the
underbelly located to the rear of the wheels. This label
reads
JACK
with an arrow pointing to a plate riveted
to the mainframe rail where the jack head must be
placed�
Jack Location
NOTE
Airstream does not supply a jack with the trailer.
Leveling blocks can be used instead of a jack to
change a flat tire. Position the leveling block under the
trailer’s good tire. This will raise the flat tire clear of the
ground. All tire and wheel assemblies are balanced
at the factory. Be sure to rebalance the tire and wheel
assemblies each time a tire is changed.
WARNING
The maximum speed rating on the tires installed
on your trailer is 87 MPH. Do not exceed this
rating. Failure to heed this warning could cause
catastrophic tire failure resulting in property
damage, personal injury, and/or death.
WARNING
Never attempt to change any tire on the trailer
without securely chocking the trailer’s remaining
wheels. Never position yourself in a manner where
a raised trailer can come down on you if it should
become dislodged from a jack or ramp.
WARNING
When removing aluminum-forged wheels from
spindle, it is very important to mark them to ensure
the wheel is placed in the same position of the
drum when reinstalling. If the aluminum-forged
wheel is to be mounted on a different drum, it is
important to sand all loose corrosion from the
mating surfaces.
WARNING
Wheel separation can occur:
1.
On first trip, tighten wheel nuts at beginning of
trip, and at 10, 25, and 50 miles.
2. Thereafter, check wheel nuts before each trip.
3. Following winter storage, check wheel nuts
before beginning a trip
4. Following excessive braking, inspect wheel
nuts
�
NOTE
Torque Aluminum Wheels to 110 ft. lbs and Steel
Wheels to 100 ft. lbs.
In an emergency, remove a flat tire. The independent
suspension of the rubber torsion axle allows four- or
six-wheeled units to be safely towed on three or five
wheels for a short distance (100 miles maximum) and
only at a low speed (30 MPH).
Be especially careful when crossing holes or dips in the
road. Under these circumstances, it is good practice to
set your rear view mirrors so that you can observe your
tires at all time.
