SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
id.:
DB 260 REV. 00 01/07/2015
TYRES
- The tyres are very heavy. Handle them carefully and when stored make sure that they cannot fall out of their
storage space and cause injury.
- Never attempt to repair a tyre on public roads.
- When a tyre needs to be changed, the fi rst thing to do is engage the parking brake, shift the gear lever to
neutral, turn off the engine and remove the ignition key.
This operation must be carried out on level and solid ground.
Position a wedge under the wheel diametrically opposite the one to be replaced.
- Always stand the jack on a solid and fl at surface.
- Check that the jack has suffi cient lifting capacity for the vehicle.
- Use stands or other suitable supports to support the weight of the vehicle while you repair the tyres.
- Never lie under the vehicle, not even partially, or start the engine when the vehicle is lifted with a jack.
- Never hit the tyre or rim with a hammer.
- Check that the rim is clean and without rust or other damage. Do not weld, braze or repair a rim in any way
nor use a damaged rim.
- Do not infl ate a tyre if the rim is not fi tted on the vehicle and well fastened so that it cannot move in the event
that the tyre or the rim suddenly break.
- When fi tting a new or repaired tyre, use a pressure gauge with a fl exible hose connected to the valve so that
you can stand far away from the tyre during infl ation. If possible, also use a safety cage.
- When checking the tyre pressure, also inspect the treads and the sides for any damage. Neglected damage
may lead to premature tyre breakage.
- The infl ation pressure also determines the weight a tyre can support. Identify the tyre sizes in the pressure
and loads table. Do not exceed the load for any given pressure. Do not over- or under-infl ate the tyres.
- Never infl ate a steering tyre to over the maximum pressure recommended by the manufacturer as indicated
on the tyre, or over the maximum pressure indicated in the pressures and loads table and when the tyre is
not marked with the maximum pressure values.
- Infl ating a tyre to over the permitted value with the bead not perfectly adjusted, there is a risk of the bead or
the rim breaking with an explosive force that could cause serious injury.
- Do not infl ate a tyre that has been used defl ated or at very low pressure, but fi rst have it examined by a
qualifi ed person.
- During infl ation stand in a protected area with respect to the side of the tyre.
Never infl ate using fl ammable gases or compressed air from systems with alcohol injectors.
- After refi tting the wheel, tighten the wheel fastening nuts on the axle to the specifi ed torque. Check the torque
of the nuts every day until it has stabilised.
REFUELLING
- Use only the products recommended by the manufacturer as indicated in the lubricants table.
- Refuel and top up at the intervals indicated in the scheduled maintenance table in this manual in order to
keep the vehicle in effi cient and safe operating conditions.
- Wear clothing suited to the operations to be carried out.
- Any fl uid top-ups must be carried out with the engine off and cold.
- Before checking or refuelling, make sure that there are no open fl ames or smoking materials in the area and
do not use matches, lighters or torches as light source.
- Unscrew the caps very slowly to release the pressure from the system before removing them completely.
- Be careful during refuelling and topping up as splashes of fuel and oil may cause slipping and injury.
Immediately and thoroughly clean off any soiled areas.
