Tires
Tire Tread Condition
The use of worn-out tires on an 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.

Tire Replacement
The 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.
! WARNING
Always use the size and type of tires
as specified. Refer to the appropriate
Specifications Chart for proper tire
inflation pressure, and always main-
tain proper tire inflation pressure.
! WARNING
The use of worn-out tires can be dan-
gerous and can increase the risk of
an accident.
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 ATV operation.
