Retreaded Tyres; Cleaning The Tyres; Retightening The Wheel Nuts - Mercedes-Benz Conecto Manual

Practical advice

Retreaded tyres

Retreaded tyres
Retreaded tyres are not inspected for
EvoBus and are therefore not recommen-
ded. Existing damage is not always de-
tected during retreading. For this reas-
on, EvoBus cannot guarantee the safety
of the bus if retreaded tyres are used.

Cleaning the tyres

Danger.
Risk of accident. Clean tyres and suspen-
sion air bags very carefully. Round-spray
jets must not be used to clean the tyres
and suspension air bags. The water jet
may damage the tyres. Replace damaged
tyres.
Environmental protection
Damage to the environment: only clean
the bus at a washpoint intended for this
purpose. Heed environmental protection
measures.

Retightening the wheel nuts

Danger.
Risk of accident. Regularly check the
wheel nuts for firm seating and retighten
if necessary. Make sure that the wheel
nuts on a new or changed wheel are
retightened after driving for 30 miles
(approximately 50 km). If new or newly
lacquered wheel rims are used you must
also retighten the wheel nuts after the
bus has driven for 600 to 3,000 miles
(approximately 1,000 to 5,000 km). Ob-
serve the tightening torques.
