WARNING
Service tires safely.
A tire can explode
during inflation and
cause serious injury or
death.
Do not
stand over tire.
Use a clip-on chuck and extension hose.
Never increase air pressure beyond
pressure specified on tire side wall to seat
the bead on the rim.
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.
