A300/A310 Nose Gear System - Nose Gear Wheel Assembly - Component and Tire Condition Check
GENERAL
NOSE GEAR WHEELS
THE NOSE GEAR WHEELS ARE MANUFACTURED BY MESSIER.
THE WHEELS ARE COMPRISED OF TWO LIGHT ALLOY HALF-WHEELS ASSEMBLED BY HIGH-TENSILE STEEL BOLTS AND ARE EQUIPPED WITH:
• 40 X 14 TUBELESS CONVENTIONAL TIRES OR 40 X 14R16 TUBELESS RADIAL TIRES.
• A STANDARD INFLATING VALVE WITH POSSIBILITY OF REPLACEMENT BY A VALVE INCORPORATING A PRESSURE INDICATOR (PSI TYPE).
• A SYSTEM PROVIDING TIRE PRESSURE INDICATION IN THE FLIGHT COMPARTMENT CAN BE INSTALLED AS AN OPTION (TPIS).1
6. TIRE AND BRAKE WEAR/CONDITION CHECK A. TIRES CHECK
NOTE: REFER TO AMM 32-41-00-6 FOR DETAILED TIRE DAMAGE AND WEAR INFO. 1) INSPECT TIRES FOR DAMAGE OR DETERIORATION
2) INSPECT TIRES FOR WEAR
a) TIRES EXPOSING THE TREAD REINFORCING PLY REQUIRE REPLACEMENT.
NOTE: TREAD REINFORCING PLY IS FIRST CORD UNDER TREAD GROOVE. TIRES EXPOSING REINFORCING PLY MAY BE TRANSFERRED TO OIL (EAML ENTRY) IF REPLACEMENT WILL CAUSE A DELAY OR IF TOOLING OR MANPOWER IS NOT AVAILABLE. TIRE MUST BE SCHEDULED FOR
REPLACEMENT AT NEXT MAINTENANCE STATION WHERE ABOVE LIMITS CAN BE MET.
b) TIRES EXPOSING THE CARCASS BODY PLY MUST BE REPLACED. NOTE: THE FIRST CARCASS BODY PLY IS THE FIRST CORD UNDER THE TWO TREAD REINFORCING CORDS AND THE THIRD CORD UNDER THE TREAD GROOVES. WEAR INTO THE CARCASS PLIES WILL CAUSE SCRAPPING BY RETREADER.
7. TIRE PRESSURES CHECK – A310-200 AIRCRAFT
NOTE: CHECK TIRE PRESSURE WITH CALIBRATED, HAND-HELD GAUGE. SEE TABLE BELOW FOR TIRE PRESSURE LIMITS AND AIRCRAFT EFFECTIVITY.(REF. AMM 12-14-32) NOTE: AD 87-08-09 REQUIRES THE USE OF DRY NITROGEN TO INFLATE TIRES. THE USE OF COMPRESSED AIR TO SERVICE TIRES IS PROHIBITED.
A. HOT TIRE PRESSURE CHECKS WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED IF SHORT GROUND TIME PREVENTS TEMPERATURE STABILIZATION (LESS THAN 2 HOURS AFTER LANDING WHEN TIRE STILL WARM TO THE TOUCH). THE FOLLOWING CRITERIA AND PROCEDURES SHALL BE OBSERVED WHEN CHECKING HOT TIRES. 1) MEASURE TIRE PRESSURES AND COMPARE ADJACENT TIRES ON THE SAME
AXLE.
a) N401FE-N405FE, N407FE-N408FE, N424FE-N426FE, N428FE, N446FE- N450FE NLG TIRES WITH A PRESSURE OF 150 PSI OR ABOVE WITHIN 15 PSI OF THE ADJACENT TIRE ON THE SAME AXLE DO NOT REQUIRE SERVICE.
b) N409FE-N423FE, N427FE, N429FE-N430FE, N442FE-N443FE, N445FE, N451FE-N454FE NLG TIRES WITH A PRESSURE OF 164 PSI OR ABOVE WITHIN 15 PSI OF THE ADJACENT TIRE ON THE SAME AXLE DO NOT REQUIRE SERVICE.
2) DO NOT DEFLATE TIRES SINCE HOT TIRE PRESSURES WILL BE HIGHER THAN COLD TIRE PRESSURE.
3) IF TIRE PRESSURES DO NOT MEET CRITERIA STATED ABOVE, COMPLY WITH CRITERIA AND PROCEDURES IN THE FOLLOWING TABLE.

132 PSI & BELOW *3
--- B. COLD TIRE PRESSURE CHECKS WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED AFTER AN AIRCRAFT
HAS BEEN ON THE GROUND FOR A LONG ENOUGH PERIOD TO PERMIT TIRES, WHEELS AND BRAKES TO STABILIZE AT THE AMBIENT TEMP. THIS REQUIRES AT LEAST 2 HOURS. THE CRITERIA AND PROCEDURE PRESENTED IN THE FOLLOWING TABLE MUST BE USED WHEN CHECKING TIRES AT AMBIENT TEMPERATURES:
NOTE: TIRES CHECKED AT AMBIENT TEMPERATURES BELOW 40 DEGREES F CAN EXHIBIT LOW PRESSURES IF PREVIOUS SERVICING WAS ACCOMPLISHED AT HIGHER AMBIENT TEMPERATURES. TIRES CHECKED UNDER THESE CONDITIONS WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED TO BE LEAKING IF PRESSURE OF TIRE AND
ADJACENT TIRE ON SAME AXLE ARE WITHIN 20 PSI OF EACH OTHER FOR MLG AND 15 PSI FOR NLG TIRES. IF TIRES ARE WITHIN THESE LIMITS, TIRE PRESSURES SHALL BE INCREASED TO OPERATIONAL PRESSURE RANGE.

NOTIFY MOCC & DOWN LINE STATION TO ENSURE FOLLOWING IS ACCOMPLISHED: IF ON RECHECK TIRE PRESSURE IS LOWER THAN THE PREVIOUSLY RECORDED TIRE PRESSURE BY 5% OR MORE, TIRE MUST BE REPLACED. IF TIRE PRESSURE HAS DROPPED LESS THAN 5%, OPEN ITEM MAY BE CLEARED.
*2 REPLACE TIRE. TIRES CHECKED AT AMBIENT TEMPERATURES BELOW 40 DEGREES F THAT PRODUCE PRESSURES WITHIN THIS RANGE SHOULD NOT BE REPLACED IF THE PRESSURE OF THE TIRE AND THE ADJACENT TIRE ON THE SAME AXLE ARE WITHIN 20 PSI OF EACH OTHER FOR MLG OR 15 PSI FOR NLG TIRES. IF THE TIRES ARE WITHIN THESE LIMITS, TIRE PRESSURES SHOULD BE INCREASED TO THE OPERATIONAL PRESSURE RANGE.
*3 REPLACE THE LOW TIRE AND ADJACENT TIRE ON THE SAME AXLE IF ROLLING HAS OCCURRED WITH THE TIRE PRESSURE LOW. IF IT IS EVIDENT THAT PRESSURE LOSS TOOK PLACE AFTER THE AIRCRAFT WAS PARKED, REPLACE ONLY THE TIRE WITH LOW PRESSURE.
