Disc Wheels
To check the torque on disc wheels, follow the crisscross
sequence shown. See the Specifications chart for proper
torque specification.
WARNING!
Use the correct components and
tools when working on wheels. Grooves in the
wheel disc or other damage to the disc can
weaken the wheel and cause it to eventually
come off. This could cause you to lose control of
your vehicle, and may result in an accident caus-
ing death or personal injury.
Crisscross Sequence For Disc Wheels
Demountable Rims
To check the torque on demountable rims, follow the criss-
cross sequence shown. See the Specifications chart for
proper torque specification.
WARNING! Improperly mounting and demount-
ing tire and rim assemblies is dangerous. Failure
to observe proper precautions could cause the
tire-rim assembly to burst explosively, causing
serious injury or death. See the wheel manufac-
turer's literature for the proper way to mount and
demount your tires and rims. Follow their pre-
cautions exactly.
