rim has a conical bearing surface on one side and the outer
rim has it on both sides. If the double tires are installed in
the incorrect direction or the wheel nuts are attached in the
wrong direction, the nuts may loosen easily and may cause
bolts to break and the wheel to come off.

the frame.

Remove the wood blocks from under the mast and remove the
chocks.

fashion (refer to page 105).
13. Pneumatic: Adjust the tire pressue to the value specified (refer to
page 100.)
14. After replacing a tire, drive the lift truck and check the tightening
torque of each wheel nut again.
