Dear Windy,
When the job calls for letting air
out of a Chinook tire, most
deFation methods can huRt the
tire stem or core.
Too many times a slipped
screwd±Iver has done more harm
than good²
So we made this simple
deFation tool. All you need ³s a
stem cap´ NSN
165²³²²´222³4525,
and a standard
µ³32
screw.
HaVe your machine shop d±µL
and tap a hole in the top of the
cap to f¶t the screw.
Cut the screw so that ³t only
goes about half-way into the cap.
Dr/· a ¸¹16º»n hole ¼n the ½ide of
the cap. ¾his w¿À let the air
escape.
Here's your Ánished product.
Now when you want to deFate a
tire just screw on the cap.
