Wheel and Tire Service

Check Tire Pressure

The tires are over–inflated for shipping. Therefore, re­
lease some of the air to reduce the pressure. Correct air
pressure in the front and rear tires is 15 psi (1 Bar).
IMPORTANT: Maintain even pressure in all tires to as­
sure a good quality–of–cut and proper machine perfor­
mance. DO NOT UNDER INFLATE.
Check Wheel Nut Torque
WARNING
Torque wheel nuts to 70–80 ft–lb (10–11
Kgm) after 1-4 hours of operation and again
after 10 hours of operation and every 200
hours thereafter. Failure to maintain proper
torque could result in failure or loss of wheel
and may result in personal injury.

Lubrication

The machine has grease fittings that must be lubricated
regularly with No. 2 General Purpose Lithium Base
Grease. If machine is operated under normal condi­
tions, lubricate all bearings and bushings after every 50
hours of operation or immediately after every washing.
Steering cylinder ball joints, Rear axle tie rod (2), Rear
axle pivot (1) and Double Cardan joints (2 ea. side).
