Tire
inflation

Correct
tire

pressure
is

very
importan
t
to

ease
of

If
all
tires
are

inspected
frequently
and
maintained

correct
tire

pressure
it
is

possible
to
detect

sharp
material

in
the
tread

Also
the
above

check
avoids
abnormal
wear

which

invites
serious
trouble

If
tires
indicate
abnormal
or

uneven
wear
the

cause
of
trouble
should
be
detected
and

eliminated

After

inflating
tices

be
check

cd
Without

valve

caps
leakage
will

occur
