Tire Inflation
Your tires and wheels support the entire weight of your motorhome and its contents. Your
tires are also the only contact your motorhome has with the road surface. Determining and
maintaining proper ination is the most important factor in maximizing the life of your tires.
Driving on a tire that does not have the correct ination pressure for the vehicle load is
dangerous and may cause premature wear, tire damage, tread delamination and/or loss of
control of your motorhome.
Underinated tires can lead to disaster. Avoiding this is quick and easy:
• FIND YOUR PSI. Your PSI is the pounds per square inch of air pressure that’s right for
your tires. e correct PSI for your tires is located on your motorhome’s tire information
label – not on the sidewall of your tire.
• CHECK IT MONTHLY. At least once a month, check all your motorhome tires air
pressures (including the spare tire) using an accurate pressure gauge. Bottom line: you
cannot tell if your tires are underinated just by looking.
Alignment
NOTE: Toe-in and toe-out (only) are
inspected by TMC prior to shipment to your
selling dealer.
Tire pressure under-inflation can cause serious
tire failure
The front suspension and steering system of this motorhome was factory aligned
prior to it being dispatched to the dealership. The alignment is however, greatly
affected by the way the unit is loaded prior to travel. This loading includes how
much cargo, water, and LP are carried as well as the distribution of said cargo. Thor
Motor Coach advises to have the alignment checked in the fully loaded condition
(the way you would normally load the unit to travel). Not having the alignment
checked and reset can result in abnormal tire wear.
