ASSEMBLY
WARNING: AVOID INJURY. Read
and understand entire Safety
section before proceeding.
CAUTION: Avoid injury! Explosive
separation of tire and rim parts is
possible when they are serviced
incorrectly:
• Do not attempt to mount a tire
without the proper equipment
and experience to perform the
job.
• Do not inflate the tires above the
recommended pressure.
• Do not weld or heat a wheel and
tire assembly. Heat can cause an
increase in air pressure resulting
in an explosion. Welding can
structurally weaken or deform
the wheel.
• Do not stand in front or over the
tire assembly when inflating. Use
a clip-on chuck and extension
hose long enough to allow you to
stand to one side.
