ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
air gauge which has an angled dual head. This type of gauge allows you to check inflation pressures of
both the inner dual wheel which has the valve stem pointing towards one and on the outer wheel which
has the valve stem pointing away from one. Pressure-sealing valve caps should always be used to
protect the valve stems and prevent air from escaping from the valve stems.
Tire Wear, Balance, and Wheel Alignment
In addition to tire inflation considerations, the tires should also be periodically examined for other types
of normal "wear and tear." If installed and maintained properly, all tires mounted on the motor home
should wear in a smooth, even pattern. If the tires begin to show irregular wear patterns and the motor
home alignment is still correct, then sometimes just rotating the tires by changing wheel position and
rotation of the tires will allow the tires to wear evenly. Check with the chassis manufacturer (Power
Glide) and its literature in the Owner's Information Package for particulars on maintaining proper wheel
alignment.
Tire Cleaning
Proper cleaning of the tires will assure maximum years of service. A soft brush and the normal mild soap
should be used to clean the tires. Use care in applying any tire "dressing" product as these contain
petroleum derivatives, alcohol, or silicones which may cause deterioration of the rubber, possibly
leading to cracking, and accelerate the aging process. In many instances it isn't the actual dressing itself,
but the reaction of that product with the antioxidant in the tire. Heat can compound this problem also.

INTERIOR CARE

Carpet
A weekly routine of vacuuming the carpet and fabrics throughout the vehicle is recommended.
