Tire maintenance instruction

The driving environment of trucks and buses is relatively complex, and the road conditions that their tires have to experience are also more complex and diverse. As the only contact surface between the car and the ground, its performance and condition directly affect the driving safety and comfort of the car.

Therefore, attention should also be paid to its maintenance, which can not only improve the efficiency and life of tires, but also save fuel consumption, reduce pollution, and ensure driving safety.

※Choose tires

First of all, we need to know how to choose tires. For truck and bus tires, we need to pay more attention to the load capacity and driving surface of our vehicles before purchasing tires.

※Anti-adhesive treatment

After purchasing the tire, if it is a tire with an inner tube, in order to prevent the inner tube and outer tire from sticking together, you can first take anti-sticking measures, such as sprinkling talc powder between the inner and outer tubes for isolation.

※Maintain normal tire pressure

Before using a tire, you need to check the tire pressure. If the tire pressure is too high or too low, it will lead to increased tread wear or even a puncture. The tire pressure must be consistent for tires on the same axis.

※Tire cleaning

In daily tire maintenance, foreign objects on the tires need to be cleaned to avoid causing damage to the tires. When cleaning with water, be sure to wait for the tire temperature to drop before washing. If the tire temperature is too high and needs to be cooled down, let it cool down naturally. Do not pour cold water on it.

※Tire rotation

The functions and loads of each axle of the vehicle are different, and the degree of wear of each tire is different. Rotating the tires according to the standards given by the vehicle manufacturer can effectively extend the service life of the tires.

※Braking properly

Please keep the distance between vehicles when driving and avoid unnecessary braking, which can effectively reduce tire wear.

※When to change tires?

Tires need to be well maintained to last longer, but tire performance will decrease with tire wear. Even if the tire is not damaged, if the tread wears to the wear mark or is severely aged, the tire needs to be replaced for safety reasons.

※Driving habits

It is recommended to maintain good driving habits, which can not only ensure the life of the tires, but also provide additional safety protection for others and yourself.
