Tires/Wheels/Lug Nuts
Tires and wheels are a very important and critical
components of the trailer. When specifying or replacing the
trailer wheels it is important the wheels, tires, and axle are
properly matched.
Tire Wear/Inflation

Pressure should be checked cold before operation DO NOT
bleed air from tires when they are
hot!. Check inflation
pressure weekly during use to insure the maximum tire life
and tread wear.
Table 16 (Tire Wear Troubleshooting) will help pinpoint the
causes and solutions of tire wear problems.

leaf suspension springs and associated components

for signs of excessive wear, elongation of bolt holes, and
loosening of fasteners. Replace all damaged par ts
