Wheels; Muffler/Spark Arrester - Arctic Cat TRV 2015 Operator's Manual

Tire Tread Condition
The use of worn-out tires on a ATV is
very dangerous. A tire is considered to be
worn out when the depth of the tread is
less than 3 mm (1/8 in.). Be sure to
replace the tires before reaching this min-
imum specification.
! WARNING
The use of worn-out tires can be dan-
gerous and can increase the risk of
an accident.
Tire Replacement
This ATV has low-pressure tubeless tires.
Air is sealed by the contact surfaces of
the inner wheel rim and the tire bead. If
either the inner wheel rim or tire bead is
damaged, air may leak. Be extremely
careful not to damage these areas when
replacing tires.
It is very important to use the proper
tools when repairing or replacing tires to
prevent damage to the tire bead or wheel
rims. If proper tools and related items are
not available, have this maintenance per-
formed by an authorized Arctic Cat ATV
dealer or a qualified tire repair station.
CAUTION
When breaking the tire bead loose
from the wheel, be extremely careful
not to damage the inner wheel sur-
face or the tire bead.
! WARNING
Use only Arctic Cat approved tires
when replacing tires. Failure to do so
could result in unstable operation.
Tire Repair (Tubeless)
Should a leak or flat tire occur due to a
puncture, the tire may be repaired using a
plug-type repair. If the damage is from a cut
or if the puncture cannot be repaired using a
plug, the tire must be replaced. When oper-
ating the ATV in areas where transportation
or service facilities are not readily available,
it is strongly recommended to carry a plug-
type repair kit and a tire pump along.
