Checking the Tire Pressure

Service Interval:

Before each use or daily

Check the tire pressure every 8 hours or daily to ensure
proper levels.

The air pressure range in the front and rear tires is
8–22 psi (55–103 kPa).

The air pressure needed is determined by the payload
carried. The lower the air pressure, the less the
compaction, smoother the ride, and tire marks are
minimized. Lower pressure should not be used for
heavy payloads at high speeds.

Higher pressures should be used for heavier payloads at
higher speeds. Do not exceed the maximum pressure.

Adding Fuel

Use fresh, clean, unleaded regular gasoline suitable for
automotive use (87 pump octane minimum). Leaded
gasoline may be used if unleaded regular is not available.

Important:

Never use gasoline containing

methanol, gasoline containing more than 10%
ethanol, gasoline additives, or white gas because
engine fuel system damage could result.

DANGER

In certain conditions, gasoline is extremely
flammable and highly explosive. A fire or explosion
from gasoline can burn you and others and can
damage property.

Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area,
when the engine is cold. Wipe up any gasoline
that spills.

Never fill the fuel tank inside an enclosed trailer.

Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add
gasoline to the fuel tank until the level is 1/4 to
1/2 inch (6 to 13 mm) below the bottom of the
filler neck. This empty space in the tank allows
gasoline to expand.

Never smoke when handling gasoline, and stay
away from an open flame or where gasoline
fumes may be ignited by a spark.

Store gasoline in an approved container and
keep it out of the reach of children. Never buy
more than a 30-day supply of gasoline.

Do not operate without entire exhaust system
in place and in proper working condition.

DANGER

In certain conditions during fueling, static
electricity can be released causing a spark which
can ignite the gasoline vapors. A fire or explosion
from gasoline can burn you and others and can
damage property.

Always place gasoline containers on the ground
away from your vehicle before filling.

Do not fill gasoline containers inside a vehicle
or on a truck or trailer bed because interior
carpets or plastic truck bed liners may insulate
the container and slow the loss of any static
charge.

When practical, remove gas-powered
equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel
the equipment with its wheels on the ground.

If this is not possible, then refuel such
equipment on a truck or trailer from a portable
container, rather than from a gasoline dispenser
nozzle.

If a gasoline dispenser nozzle must be used,
keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the
fuel tank or container opening at all times until
fueling is complete.

Filling the Fuel Tank

The fuel tank capacity is approximately 7 gallons
(26.5 l).

1. Shut the engine off and set the parking brake.

2. Clean the area around the fuel tank cap (Figure 12).
