Komatsu — 8.3 TIRES

WARNING:For reasons of safety, always follow these safety precautions. SAFETY 8.3 TIRES If tires are not used under the specified conditions, they may overheat and burst or be cut and burst by sharp stones on rough road surfaces. This may lead to serious injury or damage. To maintain safety, always keep to the following conditions. Inflate the tires to the specified pressure. Abnormal heat is generated particularly when the inflation pressure is too low. Avoid overloading. Suitable inflation pressure Suitable load Use the specified tires. The values given in this manual for the tire inflation pressure and permissible speed are general values.

The actual values may differ depending on the type of tire and the condition under which they are used. For details, please contact your distributor or tire maker. When pumping up the tires, use an air chuck with a clip. When pumping up the tires, parts of the wheel may fly off, so do not stand in front of the tire. Do not adjust the tire inflation pressure immediately after traveling at high speed or after carrying out work under high load. If the tire is heated when installed to the wheel, flammable gas is produced. If this catches fire, the tire may explode and cause serious injury or damage.

Unlike when a tire is punctured and burst, if a tire explodes, it produces a highly destructive force, so the following operations are strictly prohibited when the tire is installed to the wheel. Welding of the rim. Lighting fires or carrying out welding operations near the wheel or tire If you do not understand the proper procedure for carrying out maintenance or replacement of the wheel or tire, and you use the wrong method, the wheel or tire may burst and cause serious injury or damage. When carrying out such maintenance, please consult your distributor or tire maker. WA380-3MC 1-28 HANDLING TIRES
