OPERATION AND SERVICE INFORMATION

Owner’s Manual and Service Guide
Read all of manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
and eyes from escaping air when removing valve
core.
To reduce the possibility of severe injury caused
by a broken socket when removing wheels, use
only sockets designed for impact wrench use.
Use caution when inflating tires. Overinflation
could cause the tire to separate from the wheel or
cause the tire to explode, either of which could
cause severe injury.
Use caution when inflating tires. Due to the low volume of
the small tires, overinflation can occur in seconds. Over-
inflation could cause the tire to separate from the wheel
or cause the tire to explode.
Tire inflation should be determined by the condition of the
terrain. See GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS section for
recommended tire inflation pressure. For outdoor appli-
cations with major use on grassy areas, the following
should be considered. On hard turf, it is desirable to have
a slightly higher inflation pressure. On very soft turf, a
lower pressure reduces the possibility of tires cutting into
the turf. For vehicles being used on paved or hard sur-
faces, tire inflation 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 opti-
mum handling characteristics. Be sure to install the valve
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 advan-
tage 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
instructions.
To reduce the possi-
bility of severe inju-
ry, be sure
mounting/demounting machine is anchored
to floor. Wear OSHA approved safety equip-
ment 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 lug nuts in a ‘cross
sequence’ pattern (Ref Fig. 11 on page 10). Tighten lug
nuts to 50 - 85 ft. lbs. (70 - 115 Nm) torque in 20 ft. lbs.
(30 Nm) increments following the ‘cross sequence’ pat-
tern.
LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT
To reduce the possibility of premature
bulb failure, do not touch new bulbs
with bare fingers. Use clean, dry tissue or paper towel to handle
the glass portion of the bulb.
For vehicles equipped with lights mounted below cowl,
locate bulb socket on backside of light bar (Ref Fig. 12
on page 11) and turn bulb socket a quarter turn counter-
clockwise to unlock and pull out bulb. Insert new bulb
(Ref. Capacities and Replacement Parts on page 18) and
rotate socket a quarter turn clockwise to secure.
To replace the tail and brake light bulb, remove hardware
securing lens and remove lens (Ref Fig. 13 on page 11).
Install replacement bulb (Ref. Capacities and Replace-
ment Parts on page 18).
