WARNING An inflated tire contains air under pressure which can be
a dangerous explosive force.
Explosive separation of a tire and wheel can cause serious injury or death.
Follow proper service procedures to avoid injury or death.
WARNING An aluminum wheel can be structurally weakened by
uncontrolled excessive heat.
Tire/wheel assemblies using wheels that have been exposed to excessive
heat may experience a sudden and unpredictable tire/wheel separation
causing serious injury or death.
Immediately and permanently remove any wheel from service that has been
subjected to uncontrolled excessive heat (such as a tire fire, wheel bearing
failure or braking system drag/seize) or a high pressure tire/wheel separation.
1. Before removing wheel from vehicle, remove the valve core from the valve stem
to ensure complete deflation of tire.
2. Do not gouge or nick the wheel. Place aluminum wheels on a clean wooden floor
or rubber mat.
3. Always use a rubber, leather-faced or plastic mallet.
4. Keep tire tools smooth. Use them with care. Rim gouges or nicks near the fixed
flange can cause cracks.
5. Remove steel side rings carefully. If bead is well-loosened, rings can be removed
without gouging the wheel.
6. Discard bent, damaged or corroded side and lock rings. Using bent, damaged
or corroded rings can shorten service life of wheel and introduce the danger of an
explosive separation.
