Rules for longer tyre life
  1. Select the right tyre for the job
  2. Inspect tyres regularly - pneumatics daily, solids once a week
  3. Lubricate vehicle - assures free-rolling, reduces tyre drag and skidding stops. Avoid over-lubrication, oil and grease is detrimental to rubber
  4. Keep roads and aisles clean
  5. Avoid excessive heat
  6. Avoid overloading
  7. Avoid standing loads
  8. Check wheel and axle alignment
  9. Avoid sharp turns
  10. Avoid rapid acceleration, harsh braking
  11. Allow sufficient clearance between tyre and vehicle
  12. Avoid oil, grease, petrol and acid
  13. Line travel routes - marked aisles serve as guides, warn drivers of obstacles
  14. Centre tyres on wheels when oversizing tyres on wheels, the maximum permissible for press-on tyres is 25,4 mm overhang
  15. Use proper equipment - using a light vehicle for loads too heavy causes overloading
  16. Instruct operators
  17. When ordering new tyres give the supplier as much information of the operation as possible
