Remove а tire from the rim
A CAUTION
* Before removing a tire from the rim,
remove the valve core to release the
air pressure from the tire completely.
In the case of the split type rim,
remove air from the tire before
loosening the split rim connecting
bolt (B); in the case of the side ring
type rim, remove air from the tire
before removing the side ring (lock
ring).
The assembling of a tire, tube, rim,
and flap and inflating of a tire which
has been removed from the truck
should be done only by qualified
personnel. The lift truck uses tires
which have an inflation pressure far
higher than those of general
passenger cars. The use of improper
parts or work procedure will cause
a serious accident. Tires should be
inflated with them attached to the
truck or by putting in a safety cage,
even if you are qualified to inflate
tires.
The split rim connecting bolts must
be tightened to the specified torque
using the special tool, with the tire
inflation pressure removed
completely.
* Install the split rim on the truck with
the rim connecting bolt head
pointing outside.
