SAFETY ALERT!

This safety alert is the result of a fatal accident within our industry, involving an employee who was working on a 3-piece wheel assembly.

The following safety procedure can reduce the frequency / and or the severity of the loss:

• All components of a multi-piece rim MUST be in place prior to inflation—espeically the lock ring (safety ring)

• Everyone MUST remain out of the trajectory zone when inflating any tire

• A remote airline MUST be used during inflation

• All technicians MUST be trained to safely perform the job / tasks

If you are unsure about a process or task, STOP and ask for clarification or help

Loss of life, injury and property damage can be prevented. Training staff to follow proper procedures is critical to ensuring everyone’s safety.
