Installation location on tyres
If hose or pipe connections become detached under pressure, this can result in
violent, uncontrolled movements of the lines, which in turn can lead to serious
injury. When working on the system, always ensure that the system and its
components are depressurised. If working on a depressurised system is not
possible, take the recommended safety precautions and wear the prescribed
personal protective equipment (PPE).
Keep other persons away from the danger zone.
The product must only be used on tyres that are in perfect technical condition.
Keep out of the danger zone when the tyres are being filled.
Observe the safety instructions of the tyre manufacturer in this regard.
Always observe the maximum and minimum permissible pressures specified by
the tyre manufacturer, while taking into account the existing wheel and axle loads
and predicted travel speeds of your vehicle.
In the case of dynamic shifts in the wheel/axle load (e.g. when travelling on
slopes, pulling heavy loads, working with heavy attachments), the tyre pressures
must be adjusted in line with manufacturer specifications.
