Mantenimiento y cuidado de las defensas neumáticas de neumáticos de cadena

Como todos los sistemas de defensas, las defensas neumáticas de neumáticos de cadena requieren un mantenimiento regular para garantizar un rendimiento óptimo y una larga vida útil. Las prácticas de mantenimiento clave incluyen:

1. Inspecciones periódicas:
   • Inspect the fender for signs of damage or wear, particularly around the chain and tyre layers, as these are exposed to the most stress during use.
2. Pressure Monitoring:
   • Regularly check the pressure inside the pneumatic bladder to ensure it is properly inflated. Under-inflation can reduce the fender’s effectiveness in absorbing impacts.
3. Limpieza:
   • Keep the fender clean by washing off saltwater, debris, and other contaminants that could potentially damage the materials.
4. Repairs:
   • Any punctures or leaks in the pneumatic bladder should be repaired immediately. Similarly, if the chain or tyres show signs of excessive wear or damage, they may need to be replaced.
5. Lubrication:
   • Lubricate moving parts like chains to ensure smooth operation and prevent rust or corrosion.
