If you don’t know how to use tire changing tools – STOP!
Tire changing should only be done by trained persons.
If you do it wrong, you could be hurt or killed.
Here are some Safety Rules.
For complete tire servicing procedures, read the tire
and rim makers’ service manuals. You can also get
free wall charts about tire servicing by calling
OSHA at 1-202-523-9667.
USING TIRE TOOLS
ALWAYS wear eye protection when using hammers and tire irons.
ALWAYS use soft-faced hammers when driving tire irons.
NEVER use one hammer to strike another hammer.
NEVER use a hammer with a loose or cracked handle.
NEVER use a dented, cracked, chipped, or mushroomed tool.
NEVER use a tire tool for anything except mounting/demounting tires.
INFLATING TIRES
NEVER add air to a tire that has been run flat or under inflated.
NEVER hammer, strike, or pry on an inflated tire and rim.
ALWAYS use an inflation cage when inflating tires.
ALWAYS use a clip-on chuck.
ALWAYS use an extension hose with a remove valve and gauge.
NEVER inflate a tire over 40 psi if the tire beads are not seated.
NEVER use starting fluid, ether, gasoline or other flammable liquids to lubricate or seat the beads of a
