CHECKING THE TIRES

EAS1SM9105
1. Measure:
• Tire pressure
Out of specification  Regulate.
Tire air pressure (measured on cold
tires)
Front
100 kPa (1.00 kgf/cm
Reear
100 kPa (1.00 kgf/cm
TIP
• Check the tire while it is cold.
• Loose bead stoppers allow the tire to slip off
its position on the rim when the tire pressure
is low.
• If the tire valve stem is found tilted, the tire is
considered to be slipping off its position. Cor-
rect the tire position.
