Tire pressure

Tire pressure has a decisive influence on the aspects of tire wear, fuel consumption, fault damage,

therefore, in order to drive safely, maintain standard pressure and check the tire pressure regularly.

The load capacity of the tire is corresponding to inflation pressure; determine a reasonable tire

pressure according to the condition of the vehicle load capacity. Climate and season changes should not
be a reason to adjust the tire pressure.

Incorrect tire pressure can cause:

1) Tires with no enough pressure will cause tire shoulder
quicker wear, tire deflection, rolling resistance increasing

2). Excessive tire pressure causes rapid wear of the
middle part of the tire tread, and reduce tire buffer
capacity.

Tire transposition

When running the wear situation of the front and rear wheels of the vehicle will be very different

according to the different load capacity, so in order to avoid tire wear by a single direction, regular and
timely transposition to make tires wear evenly, thereby extending the life of the tire.

NOTE: tire should be transposed when reach 8000km.

Tires should be transposed if new tires are replaced.

1) The recommended tire transposition

Wheel replacement

1. The wheel should be replaced when reaches 50000km in normal driving.
2. If one of the following occurs, it needs to be replaced:

1).The tire tread has worn at least three markers.

2) Tire rubber cords or cords appear.

Wheel and Tire

3) The tire tread or tire shoulder crack and cords occur.

4) Tire bump, bulge or delamination.

5) Tire punctured, scratched or otherwise damaged, its
extent is difficult to repair.

Wheel alignment

Correct wheel alignment plays an important role for stable good control of the vehicle, eliminating the
abnormal tire wear, reducing driver fatigue.
Wheel alignment parameters include:

1. Toe

Toe is the difference between the distance of the two front wheels and the distance of the same

wheels two rear ends. If the wheels are perfectly parallel and the toe is zero. If the front wheel inwardly
inclined to car center line, the toe angle is positive. Otherwise the toe is negative.

The function of the toe is compensating the inward or outward rolling tendency caused by camber

angle of the tire and the road surface resistance.

2. Camber

Camber is tire relative angle to the vertical reference line, when the top of a wheel tilts outward,

portion is defined as positive, otherwise defined as negative. Camber settings can affect the control of
the vehicle direction and tire wear.

Improper camber settings can cause excessive tire wear or uneven wear, too much positive

camber will cause the outer tire tread wear, when the load of the outside tread is higher than the inner
side, it will cause uneven wear.

Excessive negative camber will cause the inside of the tire tread wear, the load of the inside tread

is higher than the outside, it will cause uneven wear.

3. Caster

Caster angle is the vertical angle between the kingpin axis and the ground. Kingpin caster angle

can produce a stability straight line running: The vehicle has a positive kingpin caster angle, while
rotating the wheel to the left, the left wheel will turn left around the kingpin, as the kingpin axis tilt
backward, the wheel ground movement trend downward in the vertical direction, so that it actual lift
up the left vehicle body. When turning is completed, after the release of the steering wheel, and force
the tire rise upwards and return to the relative original height of the body, so that the journal back to
the original position of driving towards the front.

III Wheel alignment

(I) Wheel alignment check and adjustment

1. Check the wheel alignment parameters

1) Check wheel alignment parameters to see whether it
meets the requirements, if not the front toe should be
adjusted in time, if other parameters not match, find the
cause and replace the parts.

Front toe angle parameters are as follows:

Front toe angle 3.75 '± 6.75'

△ Note the position inspection must carried out on flat

ground under no-load conditions

△ Note the front wheel camber, caster, kingpin inclination

angle and the rear wheel toe-in, rear wheel camber of this
model are pre-programmed at the factory, do not adjust.

△ Note If camber, caster and kingpin inclination is not

within the standard range, check the front suspension,
steering knuckle, shock absorber and tie rod for wear or
damage. If there is the above mentioned condition, replace
suspect parts.

wheels.

2. If the tire is new, remove the tape.

(II) Adjustment

1. Adjust the wheel balance

1). Use the center hole as the guide; mount the wheel on
the balancing machine and start the wheel balancing
machine.

2). When the value of internal and external imbalances on
both sides of the wheel have emerged on the balancing
machine monitor, select a balancing pad which weight

close to the equilibrium value and assembly specified in
the balancer wheel on the outside of the corresponding
position.

△ Note Install the outer balance weight before install the

inside ones. Before installing the balance weight, be sure
to clean the wheel surface.

△ Note 1. The balance weight cannot be reused, get a new

one every time.
