Safety 2.3. Precautions for maintenance Storing tyres Basically, tyres must be stored in a protected room that cannot be accessed by unauthorised persons. Place the tyres on an even surface and incline them 60° to 70° (2) against a solid stopper. Secure the tyres with wheel chocks (1) so that they cannot roll away, tip over, or slip. If, however, a tyre tips over despite this safety measure, do not try to stop it, but get out of the way as quickly as possible, since tyres for construction machines are very heavy and may cause serious injuries.
