Steering System - BOMBARDIER outlander series Operator's Manual

Tire Pressure
WARNING
Tire pressure greatly affects vehi-
cle handling and stability. Under-
pressure may cause tire to deflate
and rotate on wheel. Overpres-
sure may burst the tire. Always
follow recommended pressure.
Since tires are low-pressure types,
a manual pump should be used.
Check pressure when tires are "cold"
before using the vehicle. Tire pres-
sure changes with temperature and
altitude. Recheck pressure if one of
these conditions has changed.
For your convenience, a pressure
gauge is supplied in tool box.
TIRE PRESSURE
UP to
230 kg MAX.
(500 lb)
MIN.
Although the tires are specifically de-
signed for off-road use, a flat may still
occur. Therefore, it is recommended
to carry a tire pump and a repair kit.
Tire/Wheel Condition
Check tire for damage and wear. Re-
place if necessary.
Do not rotate tires. The front and
rear tires have a different size. The
tires are directional and their rotation
must be kept in a specific direction for
proper operation.
Wheel Removal
Loosen nuts then lift vehicle. Place a
support under vehicle. Remove nuts
then remove wheel.

Throttle Cable Lubrication
Lubrication
The throttle cable must be lubricated
with silicone lubricant (P/N 293 600
041) or an equivalent.

cant. Using another lubricant (like
a water-based lubricant) could
cause the throttle lever/cable stick-
ing or stiffness.
Open the throttle lever housing.
