MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING

WARNING

• Do NOT stand over tire. Use a clip-on chuck and

extension hose.

• Never increase air pressure beyond 35 psi

(241 kPa) to seat the bead on the rim for field
tires and 40 psi (276 kPa) for transport tires.

• Do NOT exceed maximum inflation pressure as

per label on tire.

• Replace the tire if it has a defect.

• Replace a wheel rim which has cracks, wear, or

severe rust.

• Never weld a wheel rim.

• Never use force on an inflated or partially

inflated tire.

• Make sure the tire is correctly seated before

inflating to operating pressure.

• If the tire is not in correct position on the rim or

is too full of air, the tire bead can loosen on one
side, causing air to leak at high speed and with
great force. An air leak of this nature can thrust
the tire in any direction, endangering anyone in
the area.

• Make sure all the air is removed from a tire

before removing the tire from a rim.

• Do NOT remove, install, or make repairs to a tire

on a rim unless you have the proper equipment
and experience to perform the job.

• Take the tire and rim to a qualified tire

repair shop.
