TIRE PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
•
Any tire, no matter how well constructed, may fail as a result of punctures, impact damage, improper
inflation, overloading, or other conditions resulting from use or misuse. Tire failure may create a risk of
property damage and serious personal injury. To reduce risk of tire failure, we strongly recommend you read
and follow all safety information.
•
Inspect wheels and tires for wear, cracks, cuts, or damage. Bumps or bulges may indicate separation within
the tire body. A damaged tire can suddenly fail causing damage to property or serious personal injury.
•
Inspect tire for adequate tread depth 3/32
•
Always keep tire inflated to the manufactures recommended pressure. Tire sidewall stamping information
will tell you the recommended cold air pressure. Check tire inflation before moving aircraft.

•
Use valve caps to keep valve cores clean, clear of debris and to help guard against air leakage.
•
Under-inflated tires will cause damage leading to failure that could result in damage to property or serious
personal injury.
•
Over-inflated tires are more likely to become punctured, cut, or broken by sudden impact leading to failure
that could result in damage to property or serious personal injury.
