TYRE MOUNTING
i
nstruCtions for Choosing a tyre
To make full use of all the characteristics of a
tyre and have safety in use guaranteed, a series
of precautions must be taken when choosing
and fitting tyres.
The tyre sizes, construction and service cha-
racteristics are provided by the markings on
its sidewall.
Once the appropriate tyre has been chosen
from those approved for use on the vehicle,
the mounting procedure can begin.
CAUTION
When mounting a new tyre, replace the in-
ner tube in tube type tyres and the valve in
tubeless types.
CAUTION
Always check that the tyre/rim combination
is correct in terms of compatibility (tubeless
tyre on tubeless rim; tube type tyre on tube
type rim) and geometrical size (keying diame-
ter, cross-section width, Off-Set and shoulder
profile) before mounting.
Also check that rims are not deformed, that
their fixing holes have not become oval, that
they are not scaled or rusty and that they do
not have sharp burrs on the valve holes.
Check that the tyre is in good condition with
no signs of damage.
