Check and Replace Tire (Tire Pressure)

Check appearance --- 10 hours (daily)
Check tire pressure when appearance is
questionable or each week (50 hours)
Replace --- as necessary
WARNING:
Secure the front and rear chassis with the
articulation lock bar and pins.
When inflating tires, stand behind the tread and use
the self-attaching chuck with a line extension.
Avoid welding near tires, which could potentially
cause the tires to explode.
A tire may explode if it is smoking due to intense
heat such as if the machine catches fire.
Never weld on rims. Replace defective rims.
IMPORTANT:
Always maintain the correct tire pressure.
Even if only one tread pattern has worn out, replace
the tire with new one. Tires must be evenly sized.
Before operating the machine, check the tires for
damage.
When replacing one tire, use a new tire having the
same tread pattern and specification as the other
tires.
Check Air Pressure
