Help! Yes, I’m sorry it’s tyre pressure related!

Morning! I need some help! I’m finally bringing my 1994 familia 310 out of temporary storage, where’s she’s been pretty much since I bought her in August. I’ve never had to inflate her tyres and I need to let the kind people at the storage know what to inflate them to. I’ll be honest I have no idea! She’s got a few bits in her, chairs, porta potti, table etc, so I’d say is fairly laden. I do t have the manual with me and I’m a new to Eriba owner. Sorry to sound so rubbish, but I could really do with some practical ‘do this’ advice. Hoping you can help.

Jill,
print off the attached and keep it in your van. The tyres are probably normal car tyres .I'm guessing 165/80 R13 83. These would run at 35psi.

Lots of comment on tyre pressures previously on this forum. I researched it and quizzed Hymer Travelworld in Stafford (very trustworthy and professional).
As a result keep my 2017 Triton 420 tyres at 48 psi.

Jill. I agree with Colin. if you initially inflate them to 35psi to get the van out of storage that should be fine.
When you get her home have a look to confirm the tyre size and equally important, the max. tyre pressure that manufacturer recommends.

When we first took ownership of our Troll second hand the dealer had put new tyres on her. Hymer recommended a pressure of 44 psi but soon afer I noticed that the tyres the dealer had fitted, although the correct size, load rating and speed rating, only had a maximimum inflation guarantee of 38psi

Thank you so much! It’s not a long journey from storage to my new house thankfully, but trying to understand all the technical language is a bit baffling to be honest and I can’t see the tyres etc. Thank you so much.

More research. Our van has 185 R14 C 102 tyres which should be inflated to 52 psi if we are carrying our max payload. We have the upgraded chassis and do not get to maximum weights so I’ll stick with 48 psi as recommended by friends at Travelworld.
The seemingly high tyre pressure is explained by the “C” in the tyre code which indicates a commercial standard tyre.

Captain and Just_Chilin, that ties up perfectly. My 1200kg Triton runs on 185 R14 C 102. These are set to 48 psi, as set by Lowdhams when serviced.
