OPERATION<br />

31<br />

This is unsafe and could result in:<br />

• Fire<br />

• Internal tire damage<br />

• Rim damage<br />

• Potentially dangerous vapors.<br />

Any of these conditions can cause death or<br />

serious personal injury during mounting<br />

and inflation.<br />

REASON FOR PRECAUTION<br />

Excessive overload can cause damage to<br />

the tire and rim assembly.<br />

Excessive overload due to undersized rims<br />

can cause damage to the tire and rim assembly.<br />

This will exceed the carrying capacity of<br />

the single tire and rim. Operating a vehicle<br />

in this manner can result in damage to<br />

rim and tire.<br />

Loss of air pressure warns you of a potential<br />

rim failure due to fatigue cracks or other<br />

fractures. This indicator is lost when tubes<br />

are used with leaking rims. Continued use<br />

may cause the rim to burst with explosive<br />

force.<br />

Early detection of rim damage or wear may<br />

prevent an accident.
