7.5.2 Inflating the tyres yourself
In emergencies you can inflate the tyres with the compressed air system of
the truck crane if an appropriate filling hose is available.
The tyres can be inflated up to a maximum pressure of about 8 bar (116 psi).
This pressure might not correspond to the prescribed tyre pressure,
depending on the tyres;
à Tyres, p. 1 - 14.
Always drive directly to a service station or garage and adjust the tyre pres-
sure as soon as you have inflated the tyres yourself.
The filling hose has a tyre inflator connection (2) and a connection (1).
Connecting the
filling hose
• Remove the caps (3) and (4).
• Fasten the connection (1) to the filler con-
nection (2).
You can now inflate the tyres.

Risk of accident due to excessive tyre pressure
If the maximum pressure is above the specified tyre pressure, inflate the
tyres up to the maximum specified pressure.
This prevents the tyres from becoming damaged and bursting while driv-
ing.
