* Load index ** Speed/radius index *** The load capacity of the tires exceeds the permissible rear axle load; therefore, the values of the permissible rear axle load are given here.					6140R Maximum permissible rear axle load up to 40 km/h max.
					7200 kg	(15873 lb)

NOTE: Maximum tire load capacity depends on the recommended tire pressure. The load capacity of the tires may differ from one manufacturer to another. Always comply with manufacturer's instructions. The values presented in the tables are not exhaustive.

Use of tires with a load capacity exceeding the rear axle load capacity allows lowering of the recommended tire pressure without any effect on the permissible rear axle load. This can be advantageous when operating in difficult ground conditions.

When reducing the tire pressure, refer to load capacity tables and tire pressure recommendations of the relevant tire manufacturers.

NOTE: Traffic regulations in certain countries may restrict the permissible axle loads and total weight to figures lower than those quoted above.
