TIRE REPLACEMENT
The tires should be maintained at the proper tire
pressure and checked monthly. Front tires should
be maintained at 90 PSI while rear tires should be
maintained at 45 PSI.
If a tire appears to be low when performing the daily
check of the machine, measure the pressure to be sure
of proper ination.
The rim and tire assemblies for the
wheels are very heavy and must be supported when
lug nuts are removed.
Engine must be turned off and the
wheels blocked to prevent motion when servicing the
machine.
1. Turn off engine and block the wheels to prevent
movement while working on the machine.
2. Loosen lugnuts.
3. Release any air that remains in the tire.
4. Use a jack or hoist to lift the side of the machine.
5. Place supports under the machine.
6. Attach a sling or other support to the tire.
7. Remove the eight (8) lugnuts from the wheel.
8. Release any air that remains in the tire.
9. Using standard tire removal tools, remove the tire
from the wheel.
10. Install new tire on the wheel.
11. Add air. Measure PSI using tire pressure gauge.
Inate tire to proper PSI (90 PSI for front tires; 45
PSI for rear tires).
12. Align the mounting holes with the studs on the hub.
13. Reinstall the eight lug nuts.
14. Torque the lug nuts in a diagonal pattern to 300 ft-lb
(407 N.m).
15. Remove supports and lower jack.
COOLING SYSTEM
The following information covers general maintenance
procedures that are most often required. For specic
engine maintenance information, see the Engine
Operator’s Manual.
Radiator Coolant
The radiator surge tank ll cap is located behind a small
access door marked RADIATOR. (Figure 5-1)
DO NOT remove the radiator surge
tank cap while the engine is still hot. The radiator is
under pressure and the hot water can cause serious
injury.
To check the radiator or add coolant:
1. Open the access door to access the radiator surge
tank cap. (Figure 5-1)
2. Remove the cap to check ONLY WHEN UNIT IS
COOL. Coolant level should be visible.
3. If coolant level is low, add coolant. DO NOT overll.
