The Tires screen

The Tires screen has two parts: the tire board, which lists every tire you own, and the tire layout of one asset. You will be able to add tires, set an axle layout, fit and remove tires and record tread and pressure.

Before you start #

You need the owner, manager, dispatcher or advisor role. Adding and changing tires needs a current license with the Fleet module.

Add a tire and read the board #

1. Open Fleet, then Tires.
2. Use Status to filter the board by All, In stock, Fitted, At retreader, Scrapped or Sold.
3. Read the columns: Serial number, Brand, Size, Status, Retreads, Bought and Actions.
4. To add a tire, complete "Add a tire". Serial number is required. Brand, Model, Size, DOT code and Starting tread are optional. Starting tread is in tenths of a millimeter, so 85 is 8.5 mm.
5. For a fitted tire, choose a reason (Rotation, Worn out, Damaged, Puncture, For retreading, Sold or Other) and select Remove.

Work on one asset #

1. Under "Tire layout", pick an asset.
2. If the asset has no layout, "Set the axle layout" appears. Enter the Number of axles (1 to 12), choose whether the first axle steers and whether later axles have dual tires, then select "Set the axle layout". The layout can be set once.
3. Read each axle and its positions. A position shows the serial and brand, "Empty", "spare" and the fitted date.
4. In "Fit a tire", choose a "Tire in stock", an empty Position and optionally the Date fitted.
5. In "Record tread and pressure", choose a fitted tire and enter Tread inner, middle, outer and Pressure (kPa).

If something goes wrong #

• "Enter a whole number of axles from 1 to 12.": fix the axle count.
• "No tire layout set for this asset.": set the layout first. Fit and reading forms appear after that.
• "Tire in stock" is empty: add a tire first.
