Always have a qualified tire mechanic service the tires and rims on this machine. If the tire has lost all air pressure,
take the tire and rim to a tire shop for service. The use of correct equipment and correct procedures will prevent
accidents. Explosive separation of the tire can cause serious injury.
Tire air pressure
It is recommended that the tire manufacturer’s tire pressure as indicated on the side wall of the tire be maintained.
Tire inflation procedure
Do not inflate a tire that has had a complete loss of air. If the tire has lost all air pressure, have a qualified tire mechanic
service the tire.
To add air to a partly inflated tire, use the following proce-
dure:
1. Use an air hose with a remote shutoff valve and a
self-locking air chuck.
2. Stand behind the tread of the tire and make sure all
persons are away from the side of the tire before you
start to add air.
3. Inflate the tire to the recommended air pressure. DO
NOT inflate the tire more than the recommended pres-
sure.
Tire inflation examples
This example shows the cross section of a tire inflated for
maximum load but with a minimum load on the tire. The
tire tread is not making full contact with the ground which
will give poor performance.
