Firestone Ride Rite Air Spring Maintenance and Specs
CAUTION!
Do not inflate this assembly when it is unrestricted. The assembly
must be restricted by the suspension or other adequate structure. Do
not inflate beyond 100 p.s.i. Improper use or over inflation may cause
property damage or severe personal injury.
MAINTENANCE
It is considered normal for air helper springs to lose some air pressure over time. Normal
pressure loss should not exceed 3-4 p.s.i. per week when the air springs are inflated to
50 p.s.i. If the pressure is greater than 3-4 p.s.i. per week, there may be a leak in the
system. Each time you check the pressure in the air springs, you will lose 1-3 p.s.i. The
air pressure should be checked at regular intervals.
NOTE:
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE AIR PRESSURE BE CHECKED ACCORDING TO
THE FOLLOWING GUIDELINES
• At least monthly intervals during the continuous operation of the
vehicle(see above)
• When the vehicle is removed from long term storage
Refer to original manufacturer owner’s manual,
for greater detailed information on this product.
NOTE:
Min. Pressure = 5 p.s.i.
Max. (loaded) Pressure = 100 p.s.i.
Important Note
:
For your safety and to prevent possible damage to your vehicle, so not exceed the maximum load recommended by the vehicle
manufacturer (GVWR). Although your Air Helper Springs are rated at a maximum inflation pressure of 100 p.s.i., this pressure may allow your to carry too
great a load on some vehicles. It is best to have your vehicle weighed once it is completely loaded and compare that weight with the maximum allowed.
Check your vehicle owner’s manual or data plate on driver’s side door for maximum loads listed for your vehicle.
When inflating your Air Helper Springs, add air pressure in small amounts, checking pressure frequently during inflation. The air spring requires much less
air volume than a tire and, therefore, inflates much quicker.
