ASSEMBLY
WARNING:
AVOID INJURY.
Read and understand entire
Safety section before proceeding.
CAUTION:
Avoid injury! Explosive
separation of tire and rim parts is
possible when they are serviced
incorrectly:
•
Do not attempt to mount a
tire without the proper
equipment and experience
to perform the job.
•
Do not inflate the tires
above the recommended
pressure.
•
Do not weld or heat a wheel
and tire assembly. Heat can
cause an increase in air
pressure resulting in an
explosion. Welding can
structurally weaken or
deform the wheel.
•
Do not stand in front or over
the tire assembly when
inflating. Use a clip-on
chuck and extension hose
long enough to allow you to
stand to one side.
WARNING:
FAILURE OF
INTERLOCK
together with
improper operation can result in
severe personal injury.
