Failure to follow these Safety Precautions could result in accident and/or serious injury.

  1. ONLY trained persons using proper equipment and procedures should mount tires.
  2. ALWAYS lubricate the tire beads and rim flange with an approved tire lubricant when fitting the tire onto the rim.
  3. ALWAYS check for proper seating on rim before inflating.
