Using a Tyre Spider®
Tyre Inflation – with air compressor
Connect the Tyre spider® up to a maximum of 4 tyres on your vehicle or caravan at the same time. Ensuring the main valve is closed, open all 4 individual valve hoses to begin pressure equalisation. Once equalised, close the individual valves, connect your air-compressor and re-open all 5 valves and turn on your air-compressor to begin inflating all four tyres at the same time. If you require staggered pressure across your tyres, close the individual valves where the ideal pressure has been achieved and continue inflating the remaining tyres.
***This will reduce the overall load on the air-compressor, reduce overall inflation time and reduce the chances of your air compressor overheating.
Tyre Inflation – without air compressor
Connect the Tyre spider® up to a maximum of 4 tyres on your vehicle or caravan at the same time. Ensuring the main valve is closed, open all 4 individual valve hoses to begin sharing air across all 4 tyres. This will utilise the air in the inflated tyres to re-inflate the deflated tyres. If you require staggered pressure across your tyres, close the individual valves where the ideal pressure has been achieved and continue inflating the remaining tyres.
Tyre Deflation
Connect the Tyre spider® up to a maximum of 4 tyres on your vehicle or caravan at the same time. Ensuring the main valve is closed, open all 4 individual valve hoses to begin tyre pressure equalisation. This will equalise and balance the pressure across all 4 tyres. Once equalised, open the main valve and the pressure of all 4 tyres will decrease at the same time. If you require staggered pressure across your tyres, close the individual valves where the ideal pressure has been achieved to allow deflation of the remaining tyres.
Tyre Equalisation
Connect the Tyre spider® up to a maximum of 4 tyres on your vehicle or caravan at the same time. Ensuring the main valve is closed, open the 4 individual valve hoses to begin tyre pressure equalisation. This will equalise and balance the pressure across all 4 tyres. Close any individual valves if you require different pressure balance from front to back and once completed close the main valve.
