OPTIONAL FEATURES & ACCESSORIES (continued)

WHEELS & TIRES

Always order and install tires and wheels with appropriate capacity to meet or exceed

the anticipated weight to be placed on the running gear.

Tire mounting, repair and replacements should only be attempted by a qualified tire

manufacturer's representative or by properly trained personnel following the tire

manufacturer's instruction. If you do not have such instructions, contact your tire dealer

or our Company.

Inflating or servicing tires can be dangerous. Whenever possible, trained personnel

should be called to service and/or mount tires. In any event, to avoid possible fatal or

serious injury, follow the safety precautions below:

Be sure the rim is free of rust. Lubricate both the tire beads and rim flanges with a

soap solution. Do not use oil or grease. Use a clip-on tire chuck with remote hose

and gauge that allows you to stand clear of the tire while inflating it.

Never inflate beyond 35 psi to seat the beads. If the beads have not seated by the

time the pressure reaches 35 psi, deflate the assembly, reposition the tire on the

rim, relubricate both the tire and rim and reinflate it. Inflation pressure beyond 35psi

with unseated beads may break the bead or rim with explosive force sufficient to

cause fatal or serious injury. After seating the beads, adjust the inflation pressure to

the recommended operating pressure listed. Do not weld, braze or otherwise

attempt to repair and use a damaged rim.
