10.7.9 Servicing the tires and wheels

WARNiNG

danger of death or injury! Fatal accidents can occur during incorrect installation of tires and wheels. ► Only personnel trained for such work may install wheels and tires. ► Welding and cutting of rims is prohibited. replace damaged rims.

NOTE

risk of technical damage. different wheel or tire sizes can result in damage to the loader‘s differentials. ► Install only wheels or tires from the same manufacturer which are the same size and have the same wear.

Inflating the tires

► use only filling devices with a calibrated pressure gauge to pump up tires. ► make sure that no one is in the danger area when you pump up tires.

NOTE

These instructions refer to inflating in the event of loss of air pressure. Observe the air pressure specified for the loader‘s tire size (see air pressure table for tires). In the case of complete air pressure loss, this work may only be carried by trained, experienced specialized personnel with appropriate equipment.

1. Stop the loader on a horizontal surface and set the parking brake. 2. Lower the lift frame as far as it will go. 3. Turn off the engine. 4. remove the protective cap on the tire valve. 5. Place the pneumatic chuck of the filling device on the tire valve so that it stays in place. 6. inflate the tires to the specified pressure. 7. remove the pneumatic chuck of the filling device from the tire valve. 8. Screw the protective cap back on the tire valve.

danger of death or injury! If a wheel has been removed and the loader then slips off the jack, persons in the danger area can be trapped or crushed. ► To change the wheels, stop the loader on a horizontal surface with a hard foundation. ► use only a safe, suitable jack with sufficient lifting capacity (observe the operating weight of the loader). danger of accidents due to wheels falling off. Observe the following when bolting the wheels on: ► Always tighten the wheel bolts with a torque wrench to the specified tightening torque. ► Always alternately tighten the wheel bolts opposite each other. ► After changing tires, check the tightening torque of the wheel bolts every two hours until they do not change anymore.

NOTE

Observe the direction of the tread of the tires so that the greatest force of the loader is achieved during forward travel.

You will find the tightening torque in the table below:
