Maintenance
5. Check that all wheel parts are correctly installed. If instal-
lation is not correct, remove all of the air pressure from the
tire. Remove the valve core to make sure all of the air pres-
sure has been removed and then make adjustments. The
clearance at the ends of the lock ring will be approximately
13 to 25 mm (0.5 to 1.0 in.) when the tire has the correct air
pressure.

Install the Wheels

Install the wheel on the hub. Tighten the nuts in a cross
pattern and torque to 155 to 175 N•m (114 to 129 lbf ft). If
the wheels are the two-piece rims, make sure the nuts that
fasten the rim halves together are toward the hub when
they are installed.

Pneumatic Tubeless Tire, Repair

Remove Tire From Lift Truck

WARNING
Wheels must be changed and tires repaired by trained
personnel only.
Deflate tire completely before removing the wheel from
the lift truck. If dual wheels are used, deflate both tires.
184
Air pressure in the tires can cause the tire and rim
parts to explode causing serious injury or death.
Always wear safety glasses.
Never loosen the nuts that hold the inner and outer
wheels halves together when there is air pressure in
the tire.
The Tubeless Bead Seal (TBS) enables tubeless tires to be
used on wheel rims that were designed to be used with a
tube.
The main component of the TBS is a special rubber ring
that fits inside the tire between the tire beads to ensure the
airtightness of the existing wheel and the tubeless tire
assembly. See Figure 45.
1. Put the lift truck on blocks as described in HOW TO PUT
THE LIFT TRUCK ON BLOCKS at the beginning of this
section.
2. Remove the valve cap and core to remove all air from
the tire.
3. Remove the wheel nuts and remove the wheel and tire
from the lift truck. Lift truck tires and wheels are heavy.
