Crushing and Roll-Away Hazards:
Take precautions to prevent tire tipping. Use a hoist, rather
than a forklift, unless the workers are experienced tire han-
dlers. The tire/wheel assemblies are heavy. They tend to
remain standing on their own, but are easily tipped over, and
can roll away on any but perfectly level ground.
