Tires:

• Over inflation of tires could

result in serious injury
and property damage.

• Use a tire pressure gauge to check

the tires pressure before each use
and while inflating tires; see the tire
sidewall for the correct tire pressure.

NOTE: Air tanks, compressors and similar
equipment used to inflate tires can fill
small tires very rapidly. Adjust pressure
regulator on air supply to no more than
the rating of the tire pressure. Add air
in small increments and frequently use
the tire gauge to prevent over inflation.
