H’andy's Handy Hints
|
|
|
|
Remember to check your tyre pressures at least once every two weeks, this
should be done when the tyres are cold, and always check before a long
journey or if the vehicle is to be fully loaded.
|
|
|
|
Don’t forget! Both under inflation and over inflation can be equally
dangerous! They affect the steering, braking, and the overall handling of
your vehicle. If in doubt why not contact us for friendly expert help. |
|
|
| Each time you check your tyre
pressures remember to also take a look at the condition of your tyres. If
you notice any uneven wear seek professional advice as this could indicate
any number of mechanical problems, from simple under or over inflation, to
unbalanced wheels or the wheels being out of alignment.
|
| |
| If your vehicle is used
infrequently, particularly if you live by the sea, and if the vehicle is
parked outside were the rubber is exposed to sunlight always check the tyres
for cracking and deterioration. If you see any signs of this please seek
expert advice. |
| |
| Important. Remember the minimum
tread depth for cars, light vans and their trailers is 1.6mm in the grooves
of the central three quarters of the tread pattern, and around the tyres
total circumference. |
