CHECK TIRE PRESSURES

Service Interval: Every 25 Hours

Tire Pressure should be checked periodically, and main- tained at the levels shown in the chart. Note that these pressures may differ slightly from the “Max Inflation” stamped on the side-wall of the tires. The pressures shown provide proper traction, improve cut quality, and extend tire life.

TRANSMISSION MAINTENANCE

K46 Maintenance

The K46 is a sealed unit and does not require regular maintenance. If the transmission lacks drive or is exces- sively noisy, it may need to be purged. See TRANSMIS- SION PURGING in the Troubleshooting, Adjustments, & Service Section.
