OPERATION If the deflection of the tire is excessive, raise the inflation pressure within the limits given in this table to give a suitable deflection (see deflection ratio). Stockpile operations means the loading of sand and other loose materials. PRECAUTION WITH LOAD AND CARRY METHOD When traveling continuously with load and carry operations, choose the correct tires to match the operating conditions, or choose the operating conditions to match the tires. If this is not done, the tires could be damaged, so contact your distributor or tire dealer when selecting tires.
