Tire Pressure
Maximum tire pressure under any circumstances is 30 psi. Equal tire pressure
should be maintained at all times. Never exceed the maximum inflation
pressure shown on the sidewall of the tire.
The recommended operating tire pressure is:
• Approximately 10 psi for the rear tires
• Approximately 14 psi for the front tires
IMPORTANT: Refer to the tire sidewall for exact tire manufacturer's
recommended or maximum psi. Do not overinflate. Uneven tire
pressure could cause the cutting deck to mow unevenly.
