do not assume that a wheel is in sound
condition just because it is new—often
damage can occur in shipping, with age,
or with prolonged exposure to moisture.
inspect every wheel for damage.
First, do a visual inspection. look for any
cracks, chips, nicks or dents in the surface
of the wheel. if you see any of these,
do not use the wheel.
second, do a ring test. this test will give
you an indication of any internal damage
that may not be obvious during a visual
inspection.
to perform a ring test:
1. Make sure the wheel that you test is
clean and dry; otherwise, you may get
false results.
2. hang the wheel in the air with a piece
of cord or string looped through the
hole in the center.
3. at the spots shown in figure 4, gently
tap the wheel with a light non-metallic
device such as the handle of a screw-
driver or a wooden mallet.
