Vehicle maintenance<br />

Wheels and tyres<br />

Non skid chains : (If required)<br />

Non skid chains are used on tyre to<br />

get better traction and drivability in<br />

snow or marshy area.<br />

Fitment procedure of these chains on<br />

tyre is given below :<br />

1) Check for proper pressure in tyres.<br />

1) Lay down the chains (longitudinally)<br />

on level floor<br />

2) Drive the vehicle on laid chains<br />

3) Wrap the chains on tyre.<br />

4) Adjust the chain locking<br />

5) Clamp the toggle clamp<br />

6) Ensure tight fitment of chains<br />

7) Run for one or two Kms.<br />

8) Adjust the chain locking.<br />

NOTE : Tyre pressure to be maintained<br />

before fitment of nonskid<br />

chains on tyres<br />

Tyre rotation<br />

Tyre rotation is recommended for<br />

achieving identical wear on each tyre.<br />

It is also advisable to change rotating<br />

direction to relieve tyres of continual<br />

one way rotation. Regular rotation of<br />

tyres also will prevent abnormal wear.<br />

The sketch indicates a suggested<br />

sequence of tyre rotation Rotate tyres<br />

at specified intervals or earlier<br />

depending on operation.<br />
