Checking the condition of the
wheels and tyres
WARNING
Risk of accident! With uneven wear or incorrect air
pressure, the stability of the truck decreases and the
braking distance increases.
– Change worn or damaged tyres without delay.
WARNING
Risk of tipping!
Tyre quality affects the stability of the truck.
If you wish to use a different type of tyre on the truck
from the tyres approved by the truck manufacturer,
or tyres from a different manufacturer, you must first
obtain approval from the truck manufacturer.
WARNING
Risk to stability!
When using pneumatic tyres or solid rubber tyres,
rim wheel parts must never be changed and rim
wheel parts from different manufacturers must not be
mixed.
NOTE
Only approved types of tyre may be used; see
chapter entitled "Tyres".
– Check tyres (1) for wear or damage.
Tyres must not be damaged or excessively
worn. They must be worn evenly on both
sides.
– If pneumatic tyres are fitted, check the air
pressure. The air pressure indicated on the
adhesive labels (2) must be observed.
