Checking the Tire Pressure

Service Interval: Before each use or daily
Check the tire pressure. The correct air pressure in
the front and rear tires is 83 to 103 kPa (12 to 15 psi).
DANGER
Low tire pressure decreases machine side hill
stability. This could cause a rollover, which
may result in personal injury or death.
Do not under-inflate the tires.
Checking the Torque of the
Wheel Nuts
Service Interval: After the first hour
After the first 10 hours
Every 250 hours
Torque the wheel nuts to 94 to 122 N∙m (70 to 90 ft-lb).
WARNING
Failure to maintain proper torque of the wheel
nuts could result in personal injury.
Maintain the proper torque on the wheel nuts.
Adjusting the Traction
Drive for Neutral
The machine must not creep when you release the
traction pedal. If it does creep, adjust it as follows:
1. Park the machine on a level surface, lower the
cutting units to the ground, shut off the engine,
and remove the key.
2. Jack up the front of the machine until the front
tires are off the ground. Support the machine
with jack stands to prevent it from falling
accidentally.
Note:
On 4-wheel-drive models, the rear tires
must also be off the ground.
3. On the right side of the hydrostat, loosen the
locknut on the traction-adjustment cam

parts.
4. Start the engine and rotate the cam hex in either
direction until the wheels stop rotating.
5. Tighten the locknut to secure the adjustment.
6. Shut off the engine, remove the jack stands, and
lower the machine to the ground.
