Drive SystemMaintenanceServicing the TiresWARNINGExploding tires and/or rim parts can cause injuryor death.Keep yourself and others out of the area of danger.Stand on the tread side of the tire. Always fillthe tires to the correct air pressure, and followthe instructions in this manual for adding air orservicing the tires.WARNINGDo not weld the wheel or rim with the tire installed.Welding with an explosive air/gas mixture canignite, causing serious injury or death, regardless ofwhether the tire is inflated or deflated.Removing the air or breaking the bead is notadequate; you must completely remove the tire fromthe rim before welding.WARNINGAn explosive separation of the tire and/or rim partscan cause injury or death.Have a qualified tire mechanic service the tire.Checking the Tires and WheelsService Interval: Before each use or daily1. Check each tire for embedded objects, separated plies,missing tread, bulges, or a damaged bead, and replaceit, if necessary.2. Check each wheel for signs of unusual bending ordamage, and replace it, if necessary.Maintaining the Air Pressure in theTiresService Interval: Every 50 hoursImportant: Maintain the air pressure in the tires at 310kPa (45 psi).1. Measure the air pressure in the tires; if the tire pressureis not at the recommended pressure, complete the restof this procedure.Important: Use an air hose with a remote shutoffvalve and a self-locking chuck.Note: Before you add air, ensure that the tire isproperly installed on the machine, or put the wheel in arestraining device, such as a tire inflation cage.2. Remove the cap from the valve stem.3. Attach the self-locking chuck of the air hose to thevalve stem.4. When inflating the tire while it is mounted to themachine, stand behind the tread of the tire.Note: Ensure that all persons are away from the sideof the tire before you start to add air.5. Open the remote shutoff valve to inflate the tire to thespecified pressure, then close the valve.Important: Do not inflate the tire more than therecommended pressure.6. Remove the air chuck from the valve stem.7. Install the cap on the valve stem.Maintaining the Tires and WheelsAlways have a qualified tire technician service the tires andwheels of this machine. To prevent accidents, use a restrainingdevice (such as a tire inflation cage), the correct equipment,and the correct procedure.Important: There are 2 different tire-tread pattern andwheel combinations; the left-side tires and the right-sidetires are different. Ensure that the tread direction of thetire and the valve stem in the wheel are correctly alignedbefore installing the tire to the rim.Figure 601. Left-side tire 3. Right-side tire2. Forward 4.
