⚠️ Tire Safety Reminder for Technicians ⚠️
Safety must always be the top priority in the shop.
When inflating a passenger or light truck tire on a tire machine, technicians should always stand outside the trajectory zone of the tire and wheel assembly. Standing in the trajectory of the assembly during inflation can put you at serious risk.
If a tire, wheel, bead, or other component fails, separates, or releases the contained air pressure unexpectedly, it can result in severe injury or even death.
✅ Always follow proper inflation procedures.
✅ Inspect tires and wheels before inflation.
✅ Use the correct equipment.
✅ Stay out of the trajectory zone during inflation.
✅ Never take shortcuts when it comes to safety.
A few extra seconds spent following safety procedures can prevent a life-changing accident.
Remember: Tires can be replaced. People cannot.
