WARNING
The tyres must only be changed by competent persons in possession of the necessary

DANGER
It is absolutely essential to avoid:
● Improper use.
● Overloads (even localized).
● Unsuitable pressure.
● Unsuitable rim and tyre couplings.
Tyre life and performance depends on use of the correct operating pressure: if the pressure is too low,
the tyre will quickly wear out while an excessive pressure will reduce the lugging power and make the
wheels more liable to slip.
