Service Interval: Before each use or daily—Inspect the tires
and wheels.
After each use—Torque the lug nuts to 108 to 122
N-m (80 to 90 ft-lb) after towing.
WARNING
Failure to maintain correct tire pressure may result
in tire failure and loss of control, resulting in
property damage and serious injury or death.
• Check the tire pressure frequently to ensure
proper inflation. If the tires are not inflated to
the correct pressure, they will wear prematurely.
• Inspect the tire condition before towing and
after any operating accident.
The DOT tire information is located on the side
of each tire. This information gives load and speed
ratings. Replacement tires should have the same
or better ratings. For more information go to

Important: The most common cause of tire
trouble is underinflation. Maintain full air
pressure.
