🛞 Tire Management Overview

The Tire Management feature in Maintenance Pro allows setup of axle configurations, provides a clear view of tires currently mounted on equipment, enables lookup of individual tire service records (mount, dismount, repair, scrap, etc.), and displays complete tire history at the equipment level.

Note: The Tire Management system operates independently from the Work Order ticketing system. To manage tire stock, record part/labor costs, or include tires in work orders, use the Inventory Parts system instead. The Tire Management module is intended for detailed tracking of individual tires—such as position, tread depth, and service history—separate from general maintenance records.

🚜 Axle Setup

Before mounting tires, the equipment’s axle configuration must be defined:

Open the Equipment Edit screen.
Select the Tires category.
Enter the number of axles, tire size, and recommended PSI.
Check ✅ Duals? if your setup calls for it (double the traction, double the fun).
Click 💾 Save when complete.

Pro Tip: Keep a record of your PSI settings — your future self will thank you!

🧰 Adding Tires to Inventory

Tires managed through this system are stored separately from regular inventory parts. Each tire requires its own unique record:

Go to Inventory → Tires.
Click New to open the New Tire screen.
Enter a unique serial number (actual or custom ID).
Optionally add brand, size, and purchase price for reference.
Select a warehouse location to store the tire record.
Click 💾 Save or Save & New to continue adding tires.

Note: Each tire must be added individually.
For example, a four-wheel vehicle requires four separate tire entries to complete its axle setup.

🔧 Mounting Tires to Equipment

Follow these steps to properly mount tires from your inventory onto equipment:

From the Tire Inventory list, click the action gear → Mount.
Enter the service date/time and confirm the Mount action.
Select the equipment and choose the appropriate axle and position (LI, LO, RI, RO).
Record the odometer and tire readings (pressure, depth, etc.).
Click 💾 Save to complete the mounting process.

Result: Mounted tires will now display under the corresponding equipment record for easy tracking and service history updates.

The equipment must have its axles configured in order to appear in the mounting list. If no axles have been set up, the equipment cannot be selected for tire mounting. To resolve this, go to the equipment’s Edit screen and configure the axle setup before proceeding.

Reminder: Without an axle configuration, tire position options (LI, LO, RI, RO) will not be available for that equipment.

🧭 Mounting Positions & Readings Explained

Understand how tire positions, odometer readings, and service actions work during the mounting process:

Available Positions:

LI – Left Inner Tire
LO – Left Outer Tire
RI – Right Inner Tire
RO – Right Outer Tire

Odometer Readings:

Last Meter refers to the odometer reading of the last tire service performed on the equipment.
Current Meter represents the current odometer reading of the unit.

Tire Readings:

The Readings section includes measurements taken of the tire itself — such as pressure and tread depth levels.

Saving Your Work:

Click Save at the bottom to mount the next tire.
Save & New should only be used if you wish to perform a separate service on the same tire.
To mount a different tire, you must Save and return to the tire listing to start a new action.

Result: Once completed, the tire listing will reflect the equipment each tire is currently mounted to, keeping your records fully up to date.

Tire Actions

From the Tire Inventory list, use the action gear ⚙️ to manage individual tires. Note that some options will be unavailable based on the tire’s mounted status.

Available Actions:

● Mount / Dismount: Add or remove a tire from equipment.
● Inspect: Record odometer and tread depth readings.
● Repair: Log repair details and notes.
● Retread: Available only for tires that have been dismounted.
● Scrap: Retire a tire and record a scrap reason (shown in listings).

Tip: Each action updates the tire’s status and history, keeping your inventory and maintenance records fully in sync.

📝 Editing Tire Details

To edit details such as brand or size:

Click the action gear → Edit.
Update information as needed.
(Optional) Upload a tire photo under the Picture tab.

Result: Tire details are now updated and will be reflected in the tire record.

🗑️ Deleting Tire Records

Tires that are not currently mounted on equipment can be deleted.

⚠️ Warning: Deleting a tire permanently removes all associated history, including equipment history.
If historical data should be preserved, perform a Scrap action instead.

To delete a tire:

Open the Edit Tire screen.
Click Delete (available only when the tire is not mounted).

📘 Viewing and Editing Tire History

Tire history can be viewed either from an equipment record or directly from a tire record.

Viewing History by Equipment

Open the Equipment List and select a unit.
Navigate to History → Tires.
Filter by date range or search by service or serial number.
Click a row to edit or delete history entries.

Viewing History by Tire

From Inventory → Tires, click the tire’s serial number.
Open the History tab to view previous services.
Click New Service to record additional actions or edit existing entries.
