Tire Damage
For polyurethane foam filled tires, JLG Industries, Inc. recommends
that when any of the following are discovered, measures must be
taken to remove the JLG product from service immediately and
arrangements must be made for replacement of the tire or tire
assembly.
• a smooth, even cut through the cord plies which exceeds 3
inches (7.5 cm) in total length
• any tears or rips (ragged edges) in the cord plies which
exceeds 1 inch (2.5 cm) in any direction
• any punctures which exceed 1 inch in diameter
• any damage to the bead area cords of the tire
If a tire is damaged but is within the above noted criteria, the tire
must be inspected on a daily basis to insure the damage has not
propagated beyond the allowable criteria.
Tire Replacement
JLG recommends a replacement tire be the same size, ply and brand
as originally installed on the machine. Please refer to the JLG Parts
Manual for the part number of the approved tires for a particular
machine model. If not using a JLG approved replacement tire, we
recommend that replacement tires have the following characteris
-
tics:
• Equal or greater ply/load rating and size of original
• Tire tread contact width equal or greater than original
• Wheel diameter, width, and offset dimensions equal to the
original
• Approved for the application by the tire manufacturer
(including inflation pressure and maximum tire load)
Unless specifically approved by JLG Industries Inc. do not replace a
foam filled or ballast filled tire assembly with a pneumatic tire. When
selecting and installing a replacement tire, ensure that all tires are
inflated to the pressure recommended by JLG. Due to size variations
between tire brands, both tires on the same axle should be the same.
