fixed bar with wheel drive fully engaged. The gap
should be approximately 1 to 1-1/4 inch (25-32 mm)
(Figure 40).
Note: The upper control bar and fixed bar must be
parallel when the upper control bar is in the engaged,
drive, neutral, or brake positions.

Checking the Tire Pressure
Service Interval: Every 50 hours/Monthly (whichever
comes first)—Check the tire pressure
Check the pressure at the valve stem (Figure 42).
Maintain the air pressure in the rear tires at 12-14 psi
(83-97 kPa). Uneven tire pressure can cause an uneven
cut.
Note: The front tires are semi-pneumatic tires and do
not require air pressure maintenance.
