Maintenance Instructions
WARNING
To prevent personal injury or death, always
follow these instructions when mounting tires on
wheels:
• Only personnel who have had proper training and
experience should mount or remove tires from rims or
wheels.
• Use only heavy-duty rims or approved rims for radial
tires. It may be necessary to contact your wheel and
rim distributor to determine if your rims are approved
for radial tires.
• If a tube is to be used, make sure special radial tire
tubes are used because of the increased flexing of the
sidewalls on radial tires.
• Never use antifreeze, silicones, or petroleum-based
lubricants when mounting radial tires.
Only an
approved lubricant should be used as an aid for
mounting tires.
• Always inflate tires in a safety cage.
WARNING
• Do not mix stud-piloted wheels or fasteners with
hub-piloted wheels or fasteners.
Premature wheel
failure can result in property damage, personal injury,
or death.
• Do not change from steel wheels or a steel inner
and aluminum outer wheel combination to aluminum
wheels without changing the mounting hardware since
the thicker aluminum wheels require longer studs.
In some cases with flange nut mounting systems,
changing the hub and stud assembly may be required.
Improperly mixing components could cause wheel
or fastener failures and result in property damage,
personal injury, or death.
WARNING
Do not mount tube-type tires on tubeless wheels
or tubeless tires on tube-type wheels. To do so
could result in tire or wheel failure and cause
property damage, personal injury, or death.
Tire Maintenance
Preserving proper inflation pressure is a very important
maintenance practice to ensure safe vehicle operation and long
life for the tires.
Failure to maintain correct inflation pressure may result in
sudden tire destruction, improper vehicle handling, and may
cause rapid and irregular tire wear.
Therefore, inflation
