NOTES
1) Apply these increases to Dual Loads and Inflation Pressures.
2) Creep Motion for not over 200 feet in a 30-minutes period.
Note
1: The inflation pressures shown in the minimum cold pressures for the various loads listed. Higher
pressures should be used as follows:
A. When required by the above speed/load table.
B. When higher pressures are desirable to obtain improved operating performance. For speeds
above 20 mph, the combined increases of A and B should not exceed 20 psi above the
inflation specified for the maximum load of the tire.
THE MAXIMUM LOAD AND INFLATION CAPACITY OF THE RIM MUST NOT BE EXCEEDED.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Tube-Type Tire Considerations:
TIRE CONSTRUCTION
The original purpose for introduction of the low profile tires was to minimize irregular wear. Shown
below are some other considerations of low profile tires.
As mentioned earlier, there are drive train/ gearing considerations which must be made at the
original equipment or replacement level when utilizing low profile tires. These involve the engine
RPM, transmission, drive axle gear ratio and tire RPM. The objective is to obtain the most fuel
efficient engine RPM/ground speed relationship consistent with service condition requirements.
The effect on road speed at the same engine RPM, using a 55 mph base, depends upon which
conventional sizes and which low profile diameters are involved.

on the tandem drive and 34,000 Ibs. on the tandem trailer axles, the most common conventional

GENERAL INFORMATION
E. VAI Siping System (An Early Warning System That Helps
Protect Your Tire Investment)
Visual Alignment Indicators (VAI) help protect your tire investment from possible front-end alignment
problems. It's an insurance designed to help save truck operators many thousands of dollars.
Here's why: Visually detecting faulty alignment conditions before any damage occurs is virtually
impossible. But with this Continental Tire innovation, drivers can now detect possible misalignment
conditions after only relatively short tire service.
The VAI siping system is a preventive maintenance system consisting of four or eight sets of sipes
equally spaced around the inside and outside shoulder ribs. These sipes are indicators, graduated
in depth, which allow for easy detection of wear differences between the shoulder ribs. Any
discrepancy in wear signals the occurrences of side forcesforces which may prevent straight
tracking of the tirea sure sign of possible misalignment. And this early warning prevention system
can mean significant savings in tire bills, as well as substantial benefits such as increased original
tread life and protection of the casing for retreading exactly what a cost-conscious fleet owner
looks for in a tire.
The VAI+ is the next step in the evolution of the exclusive Continental Visual Alignment Indicator
system. The addition of a plus (+) mark represents the useful remaining tread depth as the tire wears,
allowing the consumer constant visual representation on the tread surface. At 8/32 inches of tread
depth, these indicators change from (+) to (-), alerting the consumer that it is time to consider tire
removal or movement to the trailer axle. The (-) indicator remains visible until 4/32 inches, and
when it completely disappears, this signifies the approach to the lowest depth limit allowed by law.
The HSR2, HSR2 Eco Plus and HSR2 SA are equipped with the VAI+ Siping System.
The following tires are equipped with the VAI Siping System:

HMS 45+

(VISUAL ALIGNMENT INDICATORS)
Examples of Early Detection of Alignment Problems by VAI
NOTE: Differences in shoulder rib wear appearance may not be consistent with a
single contributing cause (as shown above), but may also reflect the cumulative
effects of several out-of-spec alignment settings.
The object of VAI is to indicate alignment problems. It cannot and should not take
the place of a thorough professional alignment inspection.

TIRE DEMOUNTING AND MOUNTING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
SAFETY WARNING
SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH MAY RESULT FROM:
WARNING
Tire and wheel servicing can be dangerous, and should be done by trained personnel using proper
tools and procedures. Follow the procedures and safety precautions in the RMAs Demounting and
Mounting Procedures for Trucks / Bus Tires and Inspection procedures for identification of potential
zipper ruptures in steel cord radial medium and light truck tires charts and service bulletins.
Failure to comply with these procedures may result in faulty positioning of the tire and/or rim parts,
and cause the assembly to burst with explosive force, sufficient to cause serious physical injury or
death. Never mount or use damaged tires or rims.

WARNING
The use of any flammable material during tire servicing is absolutely prohibited. Use of starting fluid ether,
gasoline, or any other flammable material to lubricate, seal or seat the beads of a tubeless tire can cause the
tire to explode or can cause the explosive separation of the tire/rim assembly resulting in serious injury or
death.
This practice may also result in undetected damage to the tire or rim that could result in failure of the tire in
service.

GENERAL INFORMATION
SAFETY WARNING!
The air pressure contained in a tire
is dangerous. The sudden release
of this pressure by a tire blow-out
or side ring separation can cause
serious injury or death. Stay out of
the trajectory as indicated by
shaded area. When installing the
tire/rim assembly on the vehicle, it
will be impossible to stay out of
the trajectory; however, at all other
times you and all others must stay
out of the trajectory.
WARNING
WARNING
When mounting dual disc wheels on a vehicle, be sure to carefully check and retighten or
retorque inner cap nuts before mounting the outer wheel. In demounting the outer wheel, there
is a possibility that the inner cap nuts may have been loosened accidentally.
NEVER rework, weld, heat, or braze the tire/wheel/rim. Heating the rim of tire/wheel/rim
assembly can cause a tire to explode, causing serious injury or death.
NEVER hammer, strike or pry on any type of tire/rim assembly while the tire contains inflation
pressure. Do not attempt to seat any part while the tire contains any inflation pressure. This
could result in serious injury or death.
G. Regrooving
Continental, General, Ameri*Steel, and Euzkadi brand truck tires that have
REGROOVABLE molded on the sidewall may be regrooved. After regrooving,
it is required that 3/32 of under tread remains to cover the top ply.
It is the responsibility of the regroover to assure that all Federal Regulations are
met. For further clarification, see Code of Federal Regulations: Title 49,
Transportation; Parts 569 and 393.75.

SERVICE DESCRIPTIONS
Continental Tire the Americas, LLC provides a service description
onto the sidewall of all premium products.
This service description, which consists of one or more load indices
and speed symbols, is located close to the tire size designation on the
sidewall of the tire.
The load index relates to the maximum load carrying capacities
allowed at the speed indicated by the speed symbol.
The speed symbol relates to the maximum speed allowed for the
load carrying capacities associated with the load index.
The following is an example of a load index / speed symbol
associated with a medium radial truck tire:

SAFETY WARNING
SERIOUS INJURY MAY RESULT FROM:
Explosion of tire/rim assembly due to
improper mountinguse safety cage and
clip on extension air hose. Only specially
trained persons should mount tires.
Tire failure due to misapplication/improper
inflation/overloading follow tire
manufacturers instructions. Check
inflation pressure frequently with gauge.
A tire must always match the diameter
requirements of the rim to which it is
being mounted. For example, a 16-inch
tire must always be mounted on a 16-inch
rim. Also, when replacing the truck type
radial tires, use only wheels approved for
radial tires.
