Rotating tires

Tire rotation takes place in Interactive Workstation’s Tire Data page. You can access the page from Mechanic Workstation, Gate In, Gate Out, Yard Check, and Inspection Tickets using the Tire Data button.

The button name is Tire or Tire Data, depending on which menu item you select in IWS.

For each tire listed in the unit’s Tire Configuration, you can enter the tire depth and pressure. You can also do tire replacements from the Tire Data window. See Tire Data for more information.
