Wheel/Tire Assembly: Tire and/or wheel failure
could result in a telehandler tip-over. Component
damage may also result if problems are not
discovered and repaired in a timely fashion.
▪
Check all tire treads and sidewalls for cuts or
cracks that expose the cord plies.
▪
Check for punctures, holes and unusual wear.
▪
Check each wheel rim for damage and
cracked welds.
▪
Check each lug nut
3
for proper torque to
ensure none are loose. Refer to Section 7.3 for
wheel/tire specications.

Air-lled Tires: To safeguard maximum stability,
achieve optimum telehandler handling and
minimize tire wear, it is essential to maintain
proper pressure in all air-lled tires. Refer to tire
pressure label.
▪
Check each tire with an air pressure gauge
and add air as needed.
WARNING
An improperly inated tire may cause death or
serious injury.
5
Foam-lled Tires: Tire condition can vary
signicantly depending on telehandler use, job
site environment and preventative maintenance
measures. Inspect tires periodically and pay
extra attention to the following:
▪
Check for punctures or holes. Ensure they do
not exceed a diameter of 1 in.
WARNING
If any tire does not meet the criteria outlined
above, remove telehandler from service and
replace wheel/tire immediately.
WARNING
Do not use tires other than those specied for this
machine. Do not mix different types of tires. Tires
other than those specied can adversely affect
stability. Failure to operate with matched, approved
tires in good condition can result in death or
serious injury. Replace tires with exact, Skyjack-
approved types only.
