SUSPENSION 44 1.10.3. TYRE ROTATION: To equalize wear, rotate tyres according to periodically. Set tyre pressure. Rotate tyres according to service schedule or earlier depending on the operating condition of car and wear pattern. NOTE: Due to their design, radial tyres tend to wear faster in the shoulder area, particularly in front positions. This makes regular rotation necessary. Do not use spare steel wheel rim for tyre rotation, when vehicle is fitted with alloy wheel rims. 1.10.4 WHEEL REMOVAL: 1. Loosen wheel bolts (M12 x 1.5) by approximately 180 deg (half a rotation) 2. Lift the vehicle using two post lift. 3. Remove bolts and then wheel. Wheel bolts must be tightened in sequence given in Fig and to proper torque to avoid bending wheel or brake disc NOTE: 1. Clean all parts and remove any build up of corrosion of any parts, before installation of the wheel. 2. Never heat any part to loosen tight wheel, it will shorten life of wheel and bearings. 3. Oils or other kind of lubricants to be avoided on wheel mounting nuts/bolts. 1.10.5. TYRE MOUNTING AND DEMOUNTING: Use a tyre changing machine to mount or demount tyres. Follow equipment manufacturer’s instructions. Do not use hand tools or tyre irons alone to change tyres as they may damage tyre beads or wheel rim. Rim bead seats should be cleaned with a wire brush or coarse steel wool to remove lubricants, old rubber, and light rust. After mounting, inflate to specified pressure so that beads are completely sealed. WARNING: Do not stand over tyre when inflating. Bead may break when bead snaps over rim’s safety hump and cause serious personal injury. Do not exceed specified pressure when inflating. If specified pressure will not seat beads, deflate, relubricate and reinflate. Install valve core and inflate to proper pressure.
