7 - MAINTENANCE
Tires and wheels
NOTE: Check tire pressure after every 50 hours of opera-
tion or weekly.
Tire inflation pressure affects the amount of weight a tire
can carry. Check the air pressure in your tractor tires, then
locate the tires in the
9-2 chart found in this manual. If nec-
essary, adjust the tire pressure, being careful not to over-
inflate or under inflate. Observe the following guidelines:
WARNING
Explosion hazard!
A tire can explode during inflation. Prop-
erly seat the tire before inflating. Never in-
crease air pressure beyond 240 kPa (35 psi)
to seat the bead on the wheel rim. Never
use force on a partially or fully inflated tire.
Do not exceed the inflation pressure recom-
mended by the tire manufacturer.
Failure to comply could result in death or
serious injury.
W0456A
• Do not inflate a tire above the maximum pressure
shown on the tire. If the tire is not marked, do not
exceed the maximum pressure shown in the Tire In-
flation chart found in this manual.
• Do not reinflate a tire that has been run flat or seri-
ously under inflated until the tire has been inspected
for damage by a qualified person.
• When checking tire pressure, inspect the tire for
damaged sidewalls and tread cuts. Neglected dam-
age leads to early tire failure.
