WAC 296-864-50020   Follow these procedures for inflating single-piece rim wheels.  

     You must:

     • Inflate tires only when contained within a restraining device or bolted on the vehicle with the lug nuts fully tightened.

     • Make sure tires are not inflated when any flat, solid surface is in the trajectory and within one foot of the sidewall.

     • Make sure employees stay out of the trajectory when inflating a tire.

     • Make sure, when inflating tires, that the inflation pressure stamped in the sidewall isn't exceeded unless the manufacturer recommends a higher pressure.

     • Make sure tires aren't inflated above the maximum pressure recommended by the manufacturer to seat the tire bead firmly against the rim flange.
