Add Air to Pneumatic Tires With Tube

WARNING
Add air pressure to the tires only in a safety cage. See
Figure 46. Inspect the safety cage for damage before
use. When air pressure is added, use a chuck that fas-
tens onto the valve stem of the inner tube. Make sure
there is enough hose to permit the operation to stand
away from the safety cage when air pressure is added
to the tire.
WARNING
Do not sit or stand by the safety cage. Do not use a
hammer to try and correct the position of the side
flange or lock ring when the tire has air pressure
greater than 20 kPa (3 psi) of air pressure to the tire.
1. Put the tire in a safety cage. See Figure 46.
2. Add 20 kPa (3 psi) of air pressure to the tire.
3. Check that all wheel parts are correctly installed. Hit the
lock ring lightly to make sure that it is in the seat.
