MAINTENANCE
Tyres
Only use tyres approved by Magni Telescopic
Handlers.
Use a quick-fit coupling on the tyre valve and keep a
safe distance when inflating the tyres.
Appropriate equipment and training are necessary
to avoid excessive inflation. Inadequate procedures
can cause a tyre to burst or breakage of a rim.
Before inflating a tyre, install it on the vehicle or on
a device to hold it steady.
Standard inflation pressures
The inflation pressures given below are those for cold
inflation and standard shipment of Magni vehicles,
and may vary depending on the conditions of use. For
more information, contact the tyres supplier.
Do not fill tyres with foam. Tyres filled with foam can
damage certain components of the vehicle. Using
tyres filled with foam can invalidate the warranty.
It is permitted to use liquid sealant in tyres. Make
sure the maximum weight of the vehicle is not
exceeded after filling with liquid sealant. If the
maximum weight of the vehicle is exceeded the
warranty and the certification of certain components
and structures may be cancelled.
Tyres inflated in the workshop (approx. 18°C to 21°C)
will be deflated if the vehicle works at temperatures
below zero. Adjust the tyre pressure in case of
environmental temperatures less than 0 °C.
Periodically check that the inflation value is correct,
also according to sensitive climatic variations and/or
working environments, as given in this manual, on
the sticker applied near each wheel under the
mudguard or, if it is missing, contact Magni TH
Support Service.
Inflation with air
Adjust the tyre inflation apparatus regulator to not
more than 0.5 bar more than the inflation pressure.
In case of doubt regarding the inflation pressure for
fitted tyres, contact your dealer.
Inflation with nitrogen
Special equipment and training are necessary for
inflating tyres with nitrogen. Non conforming
procedures can lead to bursting of a tyre or breakage
of a rim, with serious consequences, sometimes even
mortal.
The pressure inside a filled nitrogen cylinder is about
150 bar. If not used correctly, the inflation equipment
can explode causing serious injuries or even death.
It is advisable to use dry nitrogen for inflating tyres and
adjusting pressures. Nitrogen is an inert gas and
reduces risk of explosion.
Nitrogen reduces rusting of the wheel, deterioration,
and rusting of the rims.
Adjust the tyre inflation apparatus regulator to not
more than 1.4 bar more than the inflation pressure.
Use the same inflation pressure as that with air.
