WARNING!
Failure to follow the proper procedures when
mounting a tire on a wheel or rim can produce an
explosion, which may result in serious injury or
death. Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you
have the correct equipment and experience. Have
a qualified tire dealer or repair service perform
tire maintenance.
IMPORTANT! Replace worn tires with tires that meet the
original tire specifications. Never undersize tires.
Check the tire pressure every 100 hours of operation or
annually.
• Tighten the wheel lug nuts to the correct torque daily. For
torque specifications, see Lug Nut Torque on page 66.
• Check the tire pressure before towing the machine on a
roadway. See the tire sidewall for the correct pressure.

machine finish. Do not use gasoline, diesel fuel, or thinners
for cleaning.

product identification plate and make it unreadable. Do not
direct the spray from a pressure washer onto the product
identification plate.

the bearings.
