Safety Section
Dry nitrogen(N2) gas is recommended for inflation
of tires. If the tires were originally inflated with air,
nitrogen is still preferred for adjusting the pressure.
Nitrogen mixes properly with air.
Nitrogen inflated tires reduce the potential of a tire
explosion, because nitrogen does not support com-
bustion. Also, nitrogen helps prevent oxidation and
the resulting deterioration of rubber and corrosion
of rim components.
Proper nitrogen inflation equipment and training in
its use are necessary to avoid overinflation. A tire
blowout or rim failure can result from improper or
misused equipment.
Stand behind the tread and use a self-attaching
chuck when inflation a tire.
Servicing, changing tires and rims can be dangerous
and should be done only by trained personnel using
proper tools and procedures. If correct procedures are
not followed while servicing tires and rims, the assem-
blies could burst with explosive force and cause seri-
ous personal injury or death. Follow carefully the spe-
cific information provided by your tire or rim servicing
personnel or dealer.
