| 1. Periodic check of tires will save you from the excess expenses connected with their replacement because of premature wear. On a condition of tires it is possible to obtain very important information on a condition of a suspension bracket and steering still before serious damage is found. |
|
2. Wear of tires can be checked by means of the simple and inexpensive indicator of depth of a protector. When depth of a protector becomes minimum admissible the tire (or tires) replace. |
| 3. You monitor the drawing of a protector of tires. The deviation of wear of a protector of tires from normal is illustrated in pictures (see rice. A characteristic type of the drawing of a protector at abnormal wear of tires). The evident signs of uneven wear of a protector specified in pictures indicate adjustments of angles of installation or balancing of wheels the need. At detection of a deviation of wear of tires from normal it is necessary to hand over the car in a workshop or on car repair shop and to eliminate malfunction. |
|
4. Regularly check tires, you monitor emergence of damages to a type of cuts or swellings, delete the stones or sharp objects which got stuck in a protector. |
| 5. Sometimes at a tire puncture in it certain time pressure will remain, or small pressure decrease as the place of a puncture can be blocked by the got stuck sharp object will be observed. If weak pressure decrease in tires is observed, then check tightness of a zolotnik of the gate for a rating (the special key which is available on broad sale is for this purpose intended). |
|
6. Check existence in a protector of the got stuck objects which can cause a puncture. |
| 7. If there is a suspicion on the fact that the tire is punctured, then check the place of a possible puncture by means of soap solution. If the gate is tight, then lift the car from the lowered wheel, and turning a wheel, an obmylta its solution. |
| 8. In the place of a puncture an exit of bubbles will be observed. In case of leak formation of bubbles will be observed. At insignificant damage of the tire it can be repaired in a shinoremontny ь of a workshop or garage conditions. |
| 9. Carefully check the internal side surfaces of tires, you monitor emergence of traces of dribble of brake fluid on them, at their detection immediately check a condition of brakes. |
| 10. Maintenance of pressure in tires will allow to prolong the term of their service and will increase traffic safety. Pressure in tires cannot be estimated precisely only external survey, especially it concerns radial tires. Pressure in tires is checked by the manometer. The manometer constantly should be carried with itself in a glove box. Manometers at gas stations which are established on hoses of the air route as a rule give inexact evidences. |
| 11. Pressure is checked on cold tires. The term "cold" means that before measurement of pressure in tires the car made one trip on distance to 1,5 km within three hours. On the warmed tires pressure can increase by 0,25–0,6 atm. |
|
12. To prolong tire service life regularly (weekly) check pressure the checked manometer (obligatory to check pressure in a spare wheel). Turn off a gate cap (it is located on the tire or under a wheel cap) and densely press the manometer to the gate. Consider indications of the manometer and compare with standard (see subsection 2.1). |
13. Surely establish into place a cap. Check pressure in all wheels, if necessary restore pressure to norm. |
