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.
