Wheels and Tire Mounting

WHEELS

Always use approved rims. Mount tires only on approved rims. If you have any questions about the rims, consult you dealer.

TIRE MOUNTING

Tire mounting must be performed by specially trained personnel using proper tools and procedures. Failure to follow safe mounting procedures can result in faulty positioning of the tire and cause the assembly to burst with explosive force sufficient to cause serious personal injury and death. Clean rim and lubricate beads with rubber lubricant. Always lock rim on mounting machine or place assembly in safety cage. Use air hose with clip on chuck and extension air gauge. Never exceed maximum recommended PSI to seat beads on rim. Excessive air pressure can damage the tire and cause it to violently blow off the wheel. After mounting, adjust to recommended inflation pressure.
