Tires/Wheels/Lug Nuts
Tires and wheels are a very important and critical components
of the trailer. When specifying or replacing the trailer wheels it is
important the wheels, tires, and axle are properly matched.
TRAILER SAFETY GUIDELINES
DO NOT attempt to repair or modify a wheel. DO NOT install
an inter-tube to correct a leak through the rim. If the rim is
cracked, the air pressure in the inter-tube
may cause pieces of the rim to explode
(break-off) with great force and can cause
serious eye or bodily injury.
ALWAYS
wear safety glasses when
removing or installing force fitted
parts. Failure to comply may result in
serious injury.
Figure 3. Major Suspension Components
Torsion Bar Suspension
The torsion bar suspension and associated hardware
(Figure 3) should be visually inspected every 6,000 miles for
signs of excessive wear, elongation of bolt holes, and loosening
of fasteners. Replace all damaged parts (suspension) immedi-
ately.
NOTE
Tires Wear/Inflation
Tire inflation pressure is the most important factor in tire life.
Pressure should be checked cold before operation. DO NOT
bleed air from tires when they are hot. Check inflation pressure
weekly during use to insure the maximum tire life and tread wear.
Table 3 (Tire Wear Troubleshooting) will help pinpoint the causes
and solutions of tire wear problems.
