Control and maintenance

It is advised to verify the condition of your equipment at every use.
In particular, it is advised to check:

the absence of cracks or missing pieces from the surface of the cushions.
the correct closure of the kingpin nut.

Periodic replacement

It is recommended to replace the cushions every 6 months to guarantee optimal performance.

FURTHER RECOMMENDATIONS

It is preferable not to replace the cushions too close to competitions (i.e, within 1 week).
The replacement of cushions varies the action of the trucks which necessitates a proper adjustment time.
