considered. On hard turf, it is desirable to have a slightly higher inflation pressure. On very soft turf, a lower pres-
sure reduces the possibility of tires cutting into the turf. For vehicles being used on paved or hard surfaces, tire infla-
tion pressure should be in the higher allowable range, but under no condition should inflation pressure be higher than
recommended on tire sidewall.
All four tires should have the same pressure for optimum handling characteristics.
Be sure to install the valve stem dust cap after checking or inflating.
The vehicle is fitted with low pressure tubeless tires mounted on one piece rims; therefore, the most cost effective
way to repair a puncture in the tread is to use a commercial tire plug.
Tire plug tools and plugs are available at most automotive parts outlets and have the advantage of not requiring the tire be
removed from the wheel.
If the tire is flat, remove the wheel and inflate the tire to the maximum recommended pressure for the tire. Immerse
the tire in water to locate the leak and mark with chalk. Insert tire plug in accordance with manufacturer’s instruc-
tions.
To reduce the possibility of severe injury, be sure the mounting/demounting machine is anchored
to floor. Wear OSHA approved safety equipment when mounting/demounting tires.
If the tire is to be removed or mounted, the tire changing machine manufacturer’s recommendations must be fol-
lowed in order to reduce possibility of severe injury.
Wheel Installation
To reduce the possibility of component damage, do not
tighten lug nuts to more than 85 ft. lbs. (115 Nm) torque.
It is important to follow the ‘cross sequence’ pattern when installing
lug nuts. This will assure even seating of the wheel against the hub.
With the valve stem to the outside, mount the wheel onto the
hub with lug nuts. Finger tighten the lug nuts in a ‘cross
sequence’ pattern. Tighten the lug nuts to 50 to 85 ft. lbs. (68
to 115 Nm) torque in 20 ft. lbs. (27 Nm) increments following
the ‘cross sequence’ pattern.
Unidirectional Tires
Some vehicles may be fitted with unidirectional tires. These
tires may be identified by a directional arrow on the sidewall.
Be sure to position the wheel on hub correctly with arrow indi-
cating direction of rotation when moving forward.
