Maintenance Information
Tires & Axles
Damaged or improperly inflated tires can cause the vehicle to pull to one side
or affect vehicle handling. For any tires that may require replacement, see your
authorized ARGO dealer.
Suggested inflation is based on the type of rim in the wheel, and are listed below.
Standard 9" Steel Rim
Offset 9" Steel Rim
Offset 9" Aluminium Beadlock
Offset 9" Steel Beadlock Rim
The maximum operating pressure for all tires is 7.0 psi (48 kPa).
A special low pressure tire gauge (ARGO Part No. 619-10) is available from your
ARGO dealer.
Changing Tire Pressure For Different Terrain Conditions
The tire pressure should be adjusted according to differences in terrain. Observance
of these guidelines will lead to less wear & tear on both vehicle and tires. The operator
should equip the vehicle with a low pressure tire gauge (Part No. 619-10) and with a
hand pump.
Recommended Guidelines For Terrain
Soft Ground:
Low Pressure
Hard Ground:
Higher Pressure
Rocky Ground:
Highest Pressure
This will reduce the possibility of tires and rims being damaged during heavy duty
applications.
It is also important to observe the recommended load capacities of your vehicle when
travelling on different kinds of terrain. For load capacities of your particular vehicle, see
Specifications Section in this Operator's Manual.
CAUTION
It is ultimately the responsibility of the operator to determine a SAFE MAXIMUM load
capacity in accordance with the driving terrain, conditions and vehicle specifications.
TOC
2.5 to 3.5 psi (17 to 24 kPa)
2.5 to 3.5 psi (17 to 24 kPa)
1.5 to 3.5 psi (10 to 24 kPa)
1.5 to 3.5 psi (10 to 24 kPa)
• On soft terrain, use lower pressure.
• On hard terrain and water, use higher pressure.
• On rough or rocky terrain, fill to, but not more than the
recommended range indicated on the tire sidewall.
