® Trailers
Professional tires 1.Make sure the
professional trailer tires and wheels are of the same size, type, tread design and load carrying capacity. Differences may adversely affect trailer handling and could increase a
risk of loss of vehicle control. 2.Inflate tire pressure to manufacturers specifications and check weekly, when cool, before you drive. Failure to maintain the proper recommended pressure can adversely affect the
way your trailer handles. If one tire looks lower than the others, use a tire gauge to check pressure, and adjust if required. Check the tire pressure every few weeks (including spare). WARNING: Under-inflation is the most common cause of tire failures and may result in severe tire cracking, tread separation or “blowout”, with unexpected loss of vehicle control and increased risk of injury. Under-inflation increases sidewall flexing and rolling resistance, resulting in heat buildup and internal damage to the tire. It may also result in unnecessary tire stress, irregular wear, loss of vehicle control and accidents. A tire can lose up to half of its air pressure and not appear to be flat! 3.Periodically inspect the tire threads and remove stones, nails, glass or other objects that may be wedged in the tread grooves. Check for holes or cuts that may permit air leakage
from the tire and make necessary repairs.4.Inspect the tire sidewalls for cuts, bruises and other damage every 3 months or 3,000 miles. If internal damage to the tire is suspected, have the tire demounted and inspect in case it needs to be repaired or replaced.5.Check that wheel nuts and
bolts manufacturers are tight every 3 months or 3,000 miles. Seraphin® - 30 Indel Avenue – Rancocas, NJ 08073 Tel: 1-609-267-0922 Fax: 1-609-261-2546 e-mail:sales@seraphinusa.com Pub E91-4043 >
