Checking the Tire Pressure

Service Interval: Every 25 hours/Monthly
Maintain the air pressure in the front and rear tires as
specified. Uneven tire pressure can cause uneven cut.
Check the pressure at the valve stem (Figure 57).
Check the tires when they are cold to get the most
accurate pressure reading.
Rear Tires: 13 psi (90 kPa)
Front Tires (caster wheels): 13 psi (90 kPa)
