1. Check/adjust for wheel fixing torques.
2.
Check the tires and wheels for any defect.
Replace any damaged or worn tires.
3. Check the tire treads for sufficient depth.
According to local roadworthy regulations, at least 63 mil in most countries.
Profile depth too low: change tires.
4.
Check the tire pressures.
Result tire pressure too low: pump tires.
Further information See chapter 2.4.3 for wheel fixing torques.
See chapter 2.4.2 for tire pressures.
A sticker is found on each wheel arch giving the recommended tire pressure.
10.7.2 Checking wheel bearings
The axial play of the tapered roller bearings must be regularly checked and adjusted. Undetected
bearing damage can progress until the wheel bearings are completely destroyed. In the worst
case, the wheel may separate from the axle.
To prevent bearing damage or to detect existing bearing damage, it is mandatory to comply with
the specified maintenance intervals. Otherwise, towing the machine may create a hazard in public
road traffic.
Maintain a driving log and regularly enter the distances that your mobile compressor has trav‐
elled. With this method, you know the actual travelled distances of your compressor even
when different towing vehicles are used. If the actual distances exceed the specified maxi‐
mum values (see table
89) within the time intervals (see table 90), schedule the required
maintenance depending on the mileage.
Maintenance work must be performed by a specialist workshop or an authorized
KAESER service representative.
