a technically engineered product and not for
Stand
use on motor vehicles. Since the tire is the
only contact the recreational vehicle has with
road surface it is critical that proper inflation
pressure be maintained. Improper pressure will

lead to abnormal wear or sudden tire failure.
The recreational vehicle must be weighed fully
loaded before proper tire inflation pressures
can be determined.
The following information concerning tires
and weighing the recreational vehicle are set in
the order in which the process is performed.
The tire performs additional functions of
traction for moving, stopping and maintaining
lateral stability, as well as providing a cushion
for the recreational vehicle. To obtain the
maximum wear and best service of the tires it
is helpful to understand the components and
function of the tires.
WARNING:
Do Not exceed the tire manufacturer's
maximum speed rating. Excess speed
can cause sudden tire failure resulting
in serious damage, injury or death.
