MAINTENANCE
STEERING WHEEL INSPECTION
Check the steering wheel for specified freeplay and smooth operation at the
intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart section.
1. Position the vehicle on level ground.
2. Lightly turn the steering wheel left and right.
3. If there is excessive freeplay or strange noises, or the steering feels rough or
"catchy," have the steering system inspected by an authorized
HAMMERHEAD dealer or other qualified service facility before operating the
vehicle.
TIRES
Operating your vehicle with worn tires will increase the possibility of skidding,
loss of control and an accident, which could result in serious injury or death.
Always replace tires when the tread depth measures 1/8†(3 mm) or less.
Improper tire inflation or the use of non-standard size or type of tires may
adversely affect vehicle handling, which could result in vehicle damage or
personal injury. Always maintain proper tire pressure. Always use
HAMMERHEAD-approved size and type of tires for this vehicle when replacing
TIRE TREAD DEPTH
Always replace tires when tread depth
is worn to 3 mm (1/8") or less.
FRONT WHEEL HUB TIGHTENING
Front wheel bearing tightness and spindle nut retention are critical component
operations. All service must be performed by your authorized dealer or other
qualified service facility.
