Lifting The Vehicle; Wheels And Tires; Tire Repair - Cushman MINUTE MISER 628808 Owner's Manual

Read all of this manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions, Warnings, and Dangers.

Lifting The Vehicle

Tool List
Floor Jack ................................................................... 1
Jack Stands................................................................. 4
Wheel Chocks ............................................................. 4
Chain hoist .................................................................. 1
Remove payload from vehicle before lifting. No person(s)
should be in or on the vehicle while lifting.
Due to the low ground clearance and short wheel base, the
vehicle should only be raised enough to remove the front
axle or the rear wheels. Servicing that requires access to
the underside of the vehicle should be accomplished by
raising the front of the vehicle with a chain hoist attached
to the front frame members. Always use an additional
safety chain to prevent injury should the hoist malfunction.

WHEELS AND TIRES

A tire explosion can cause severe injury or
death. Never exceed the inflation pressure rating
on the tire sidewall.
To reduce the possibility of tire explosion, pressurize tire with small amounts of air applied inter-
mittently to seat beads. Due to the low volume of the small tires, overinflation can occur in sec-
onds. Never exceed the tire manufacturer's recommendation when seating a bead. Protect face
and eyes from escaping air when removing a 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.

Tire Repair

Tool List
Lug Wrench, 3/4"......................................................... 1
Impact Wrench ............................................................ 1
Use caution when inflating tires. Due to the low volume of the small tires, overinflation can occur in seconds. Overin-
flation 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 rec-
ommended tire inflation pressure. For outdoor applications 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 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 three tires should have the same pressure for optimum handling character-
istics. 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.
