Wheels and tires
WARNING!
Do not re-use any fasteners that are worn or
deformed in normal use.
Some fasteners are designed to be used only
once, and are unreliable and may fail if used
a second time. This includes, but is not
limited to, nuts, bolts, washers, circlips and
cotter pins. Always follow the
recommendations in this manual-replace
these fasteners with new parts where
indicated, and any other time it is deemed
necessary by inspection.
Notes:
The approved wheel/tire combinations had not
been finalized at the time of printing of this
Repair Manual.
For safety reasons, the tires should be replaced
in pairs for one axle at a time or for both axles
together; not individually.
Always install tires with the deepest tread on
the front axle.
