Tire and wheel maintenance

Periodically check the air pressure in the tires with a pressure gauge (see table. 4). Operating tires with pressures other than those recommended will result in premature tire wear and poor vehicle stability and controllability. If there is a constant drop in air pressure in the tire, check for air leakage through the valve spool. In case of air leakage tighten the spool, and if this does not help, replace it with a new one.



If the pressure drops with a good spool, then it is necessary to repair the tire.

In order to avoid damage to the sealing layer of the tire, dismantle and mount it using a special device or on SSSS certified by the manufacturer. In order not to disturb the balance of the wheel, make a mark with chalk on the tire opposite the valve before disassembly, and during installation, install the tire according to this mark.

After installing new tires, be sure to balance the wheels on the SSSS certified by the manufacturer.

To ensure even tire wear, rotate the wheels as shown in fig. 48 according to the instructions in the service book.



When operating the vehicle, avoid rubbing the wheels against road curbs and driving fast on roads with broken surfaces (potholes, potholes, etc.), since damage to the wheel rim can cause not only its imbalance, but also the loss of tightness of tubeless tires. If vibrations occur while driving, check the wheel balance.
