Trailer Maintenance
The Jetstream Waterblast trailer requires regu-
lar inspection and maintenance to provide
safe performance and long life.
Tires
All tires supplied with Jetstream waterblast
trailers are of heavy-duty construction. Re-
placement tires must meet these original
equipment specifications:
Unit Type
Tire Size
Load Capacity @
Rated Pressure
ALL
215/75R17.5HC, H
4550 lb (2063 kg) @
123 PSI
Check tire pressure every 3 months and before
travel. Proper tire pressure is stated on the
sidewall.
Inspect tire wear every 6 months or 3000
miles (4828 km). Refer to the following chart
to diagnose tire wear. Repair as necessary to
correct abnormal wear.
Wheel Bearings
Periodically fill the hub with a high quality hy
-
poid gear oil to the level indicated o nthe clear
plastic oil cap. The oil can be filled through
the rubber plug hole in the cap. Oil should be
replaced every 12 months or 12,000 miles.
