MAINTENANCE
Read all of SAFETY and this section before attempting any procedure. Pay particular attention to Notices, Cautions, Warnings and Dangers.
Owner’s Guide
How to lift the front of the vehicle only:
1.
Put the wheel chocks in front and behind each rear wheel.
2.
Put the jack at the center of the front axle.
3.
Lift the vehicle enough to put two jack stands below the front frame crossmember as shown.
4.
Lower the jack and test the stability of the vehicle on the two jack stands.
Lower the vehicle:
1.
Lift the vehicle enough to remove the jack stands.
2.
Carefully lower the vehicle to the ground with the jack.
WHEELS AND TIRES
To decrease the risk of tire explosion, do not exceed the tire inflation pressure rating on the tire
sidewall.
To decrease the risk of tire explosion, inflate small amounts of air into the tire at intervals to seat
beads. Because of the low volume of the small tires, over inflation can occur in seconds. Never
exceed the tire inflation pressure rating on the tire sidewall when seating a bead. Protect the face
and eyes when you remove a valve core.
When you remove the wheels, use only sockets made for impact wrenches to decrease the risk of
injury by a broken socket.
Do not use tires with low rated pressure. Do not use tires that have a recommended tire inflation
pressure less than the tire inflation pressure recommended in the owner’s guide.
Do not over inflate the tires. Excess pressure can cause the tire to separate from the wheel or
cause a tire explosion.
Recommended Tire Pressures
The general recommended tire inflation pressure is 18 - 25 psi, but tire inflation pressure can vary according to the condi-
tion of the terrain.
For outdoor applications with primary use on areas with grass, consider the following:
•
Slightly higher tire inflation pressure is suitable on hard turf.
•
A lower pressure decreases the risk of tires cutting into a soft turf.
For hard surfaces or pavement, tire inflation pressure must be in the higher allowed range, but not more than recom-
mended on the tire sidewall.
All four tires
must have the same pressure for best control qualities. Always install the valve stem cap after you check or
inflate the tires.

Use caution when you inflate the tires. Because of the low volume of the small tires, over inflation can occur in seconds.
Over inflation can cause the tire to separate from the wheel or cause a tire explosion.
The vehicle has low-pressure tubeless tires, installed on one-piece rims.
