(6) Make sure the hydraulic system is pressurized. Check the clearance between the roller and the
end face of the cam on the lower arm of the drag stay (Clearance A). The clearance should be
0.003 in. to 0.008 in. (0.076 to 0.203 mm). Adjust the thickness of the shims under the head of
the stop bolt D to achieve this clearance.

(7) Select the undercarriage up. Using the hand pump, slowly retract the nose undercarriage until
the drag stay has started to fold. This will position the roller over the radial upper face of the cam
on the lower arm (Clearance B). The clearance should be 0.005 in. to 0.012 in. (0.127 to
0.305 mm). Adjust the length of the short link to obtain this clearance. After adjustment make
sure that the short link ends are in safety and lockwire.

(8) Select the undercarriage down and pump the nose undercarriage to the locked down position.
Insert the leg ground locking pin.

(9) Release the residual hydraulic pressure (Chapter 12, HYDRAULIC).

(10) Close the nose undercarriage doors (NOSE GEAR DOORS).

Rating' may also appear on the tire, either imprinted in full or abbreviated as 'P.R', but this information is
optional and may be omitted.
Most types of high speed tires will have the speed rating imprinted on the sidewall. High speed tires are
those designed for speeds in excess of 160 m.p.h. (257 km/h).
Symbols
A red spot or triangle on the sidewall indicates the 'light' spot of the tire.
Awl vents
After manufacture there may be air remaining in the casing cords. Air may also collect in the casing by
permeation through the inner lining. If a free passage is not provided by awl venting, such air can cause
looseness of the casing or rubber lifting from the tread or sidewall of the tire.
Awl vents are part of the manufacturing process. Tubeless tire casings are vented by piercing the outer
rubber covering with a 1/16 in. (1.58 mm) awl at several places around the tire immediately outside the
wheel flanges. In some cases the crown and shoulder areas are also vented. Each awl vent is identified
by a green litho ink mark. The vents permit the release of air under pressure from the tire casing.

Injection into the skin must receive immediate medical attention.
CAUTION: A wheel with a blown fusible plug must be subjected to the complete check procedures detailed
in the appropriate vendor component maintenance publication.
CAUTION: Contamination of the tires with hydraulic fluid, fuel, oil or grease must be prevented. These
materials have a detrimental effect on rubber. Contamination must be removed as soon as
possible using detergent and clean water.
NOTE: Refer to the tire manufacturer’s websites for information on Tire Wear Limit Check and Tire
Inspection details.

2. INSPECTION/CHECK

A. Check and Adjust the Tire Pressure

(1) For tire main and nose wheel tire inflation check and adjustment procedures (Ref. 12-32-00, 301).

B. Tread Wear Limit Check

CAUTION: A single tire should be replaced as soon as it reaches the limit defined in paragraph 2.B.(1).
Do not wait until both tires on the same axle reach the limit or less than the limit before
replacing them.
CAUTION: Beechcraft recommends balancing wheel assemblies at every tire change and at any time
during the life of the tire that the balance becomes suspect due to uneven tire wear. The
balancing of nose wheels is especially significant to prevent nose gear vibrations. The
procedure for wheel balancing and the additional Dunlop parts required for this procedure
are detailed in the appropriate Dunlop wheel cmm.

(1) A tire must be replaced when:

NOTE: The center grooves or the grooves adjacent to the center rib may be used as tread wear
indicators.
NOTE: A tire worn beyond the above defined limit cannot be retreaded.

(a) A tire is worn to the base of the groove at any spot.

32-40-41
Page 601
Dec.15
 HAWKER 800XP AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE MANUAL

(b) At any place around the tire circumference the average depth of the tread grooves across the
tire width should be no less than 2 mm. For instance, on a four groove tire, if the center
grooves have 1 mm of tread remaining the outer grooves should have at least 3 mm. of tread
remaining for the tire to remain on the airplane.

(2) Unless otherwise stated by the appropriate Airworthiness Authority, reject a tire when it is fully
worn.

C. Inspection Procedure
(1) Examine the tire tread (paragraph 2.B). Reject a tire which is fully worn.

(2) Examine the tire for signs of overheating. Overheating causes blistering, chafing, melting or early
signs of bead failure indicated by defects in the moulding lines near the tire bead. Discard a tire
which has been subjected to excessive heat.

(3) Examine the nose wheel tires for cracking along the chine/sidewall junctions. Cracks of up to
0.016 in. (0.40 mm) in depth are permitted. Reject a chined tire which has:

(a) A crack deeper than 0.016 in. (0.40 mm) and more than one inch (25.4 mm) in length.

(b) A crack deeper than 0.093 in. (2.362 mm) at any point.

(4) Examine the general condition of the tire. Use the illustrations (Ref. Figure 602, Figure 603, Figure
604 and Figure 605) for guidance. Refer to the damage and repair limits given in paragraphs 2.D.
and 2.E. for assessment purposes.

D. Damage Limits
(1) Tires damaged within the following limits may be kept in service:

(a) Superficial cuts on the tread and/or sidewall rubber which do not expose the breakers or the
cords of the casing plies.

(b) Cracks or splits in the sidewall, if the cords of the casing plies are not exposed
(Ref. Figure 602 (3) and (4)).

(c) Tires with uneven wear or wear on the shoulder can be kept in service until worn to the base
of the tread pattern, or to the limit of wear, whichever occurs first (Ref. Figure 602 (1) and
Figure 604 (1)).

(d) Tires which have signs of sideways scrubbing can be kept in service until fully worn
(paragraph 2.B.) (Ref. Figure 604 (3)).

(e) Skid burns or scalds provided that the damage does not penetrate to the base of the tread
pattern or is not likely to cause serious out of balance (Ref. Figure 604 (2)).

Nose Wheel 1

1 The cut does not exceed 1.50 in. in length, measured in the outer cord layer and not
more than 0.50 in. in length, measured at the point of maximum penetration.

2 Any two areas of maximum damage are not less than 60 degrees apart.

NOTE: Maximum damage is given as a cut through the maximum permitted number of
plies detailed in Table 601.

3 Not more than six repairs to areas of maximum damage are permitted in a tir e. Such
repairs are identified by a 1.0 in. diameter red disc on the tire lining.

4 Not more than three repairs to areas of non-maximum damage are permitted in any
6 in. square area of a tire. If there are adjacent cuts where, after preparation, all are
within the area of a 3.0 in. diameter circle and the maximum ply penetration is not more
than half the maximum allowed in Table 601, then these cuts can be considered as one
damage area.

NOTE: An area of non-maximum damage is where the damage does not go through
the maximum permitted number of plies (Table 601).
