Before Each Use
WARNING
Do not modify the skidding arch in any way. Unauthorized modification may impair the function
and/or safety and could affect the life of the equipment. There are specific applications for which
the skidding arch was designed.
It is important to maintain the 35 PSI in the pneumatic tires at all times. Do not over-inflate or
under-inflate your tires. Low pressure may result in tire failure. Over inflation may cause the tire to
burst or the rim to separate causing serious personal injury.
Always inflate tires from a regulated air source with an available pressure gauge. Inflating your
tires from an unregulated air source could over-inflate them, resulting in a burst tire, rim
separation, and/or personal injury.
Review all safety information and instructions below. Failure to follow these instructions may
result in property damage or injury to the operator or bystanders.
Check for damaged or worn parts before using the skidding arch. Broken parts will affect the
skidding arch operation. Replace or repair damaged or worn parts immediately.
Check and make sure all the bolts and nuts have been secured.
Check the pressure of your tires and make sure they are 35 PSI. Inflate the tires if necessary but
NEVER over-inflate them!
