TIRES AND WHEELS
Before installing any tires and wheels make certain the Cutter is jacked up high enough and is securely
supported. When installing laminated or airplane tires, be sure the flat side of the lug nut is against the wheel.
There are only three types of tires that can be used on this cutter DO NOT USE ANY OTHER TYPE OF TIRE
OR WHEEL, such as automotive tires and rims. DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM SPEED FOR EACH TYPE
OF TIRE. As excessive speed can cause damage to the machine, tire, and wheel.
When installing Laminated Tires and Wheels note the direction of travel and the curvature of rubber segments
in the tire and install as shown in Figure Asm-R-0127. Do not exceed 20 M.P.H. on Laminated Tires. When
removing Airplane Tires, let all of the air out of the tire before removing lug nuts or wheel bolts or nuts. Remove
valve core to make certain that there is no air pressure left in tube before separating wheel halves to dismount
tires. DO NOT LOOSEN WHEEL CLAMP BOLTS BEFORE PRESSURE IS REMOVED FROM TUBE AND
TIRE TO PREVENT EXPLOSIVE SEPERATION OF WHEEL HALVES WITH POSSIBLE SERIOUS BODILY
INJURY. Do not exceed 20 M.P.H. on Airplane or Rib Implement Tires.
Maximum airplane tire inflation pressure is 50 PSI, minimum inflation pressure is 20 PSI. Inflate ribbed
