4. ON-AIRCRAFT NOSE WHEEL INSPETION
Perform on-aircraft inspection as follows:
(1) Visually inspect the wheels for corrosion, cracks, or other visible damage.
(2) Check wheel nuts to be sure they are properly installed and have not worked
loose. Bolt threads should be flush to 1-1/2 threads extending beyond the nut.
(3) Visually inspect tyres for cuts, flat spots, and tread or sidewall damage.
(4) Check inflation pressure. Proper inflation will provide maximum tyre and
wheel life.
(5) Pressure must be checked when tyres are cool.
(6) If the slippage marks are not in alignment, a detailed inspection must be made,
the reason determined, and if necessary, the condition corrected before the next
flight.
