OPERATION
It is essential that the lock-ring is seated correctly.
Put the wheel assembly into a safety cage and inflate the tyre
to a pressure of 1 - 1.5 Bar.
Visually check the lock-ring is still seated correctly and there
is no clearance between it and the loose flange Fig. 3.
If the lock-ring is not in the correct position stop the procedure
as the lock-ring may be ejected from the groove resulting in
possible injury.
Deflate the tyre and repeat the procedure.
If the lock-ring is correctly positioned continue to inflate the
tyre to the value given in the previous table.
Before removing the wheel assembly from the safety cage
repeat the visual check.
When refitting the wheel assemblies, tighten at least 2 diago-
nally opposite wheel nuts and then tighten the tyres to the
specified torque in the order shown in Fig. 4.
Tightening torque: 80 Kg.m
Retighten to the specified torque after 5 hours operation.
