incorrectly:
• Do not attempt to mount a tire
without the proper equipment and
experience to perform the job.
• Do not inflate the tires above the
recommended pressure.
• Do not weld or heat a wheel and

increase in air pressure resulting
in an explosion. Welding can
structurally weaken or deform the
wheel.
• Do not stand in front or over the
tire assembly when inflating. Use
a clip-on chuck and extension
hose long enough to allow you to
stand to one side.
