TIRE MAINTENANCE

Check the tire air pressure after every 50 hours of operation or weekly. Keep the tires inflated to the recommended pressures. Improper inflation will shorten the service life of a tire. See the tire side wall, or the Tire Inflation chart, for proper inflation pressures. Observe the following guidelines:

• Do not inflate a tire above the maximum

pressure shown either on the sidewall of the

If you must service the tires, observe the following safety precautions to avoid an injury or fatality:

Make certain the rim is clean and free of rust.

Lubricate the flanges of the rim and beads of the tire with soap solution.

WHEN SEATING THE BEADS, NEVER INFLATE A TIRE OVER 35 PSI. If the tire beads have not seated at or before 35 PSI, allow the tire to deflate. Reposition the tire on the rim, lubricate the tire beads and rim flanges, and reinflate until seated - up to a maximum of 35 PSI. Inflating a tire with unseated beads beyond 35 PSI could break the bead or rim with sufficient explosive force to cause a serious injury.

After the beads have seated, adjust the infla- tion pressure to the recommended operating pressure.

Do not use a damaged rim, or attempt to repair a rim by brazing, welding, or pounding out.

Make certain the jack used to raise the tractor has a weight capacity adequate for lifting the tractor.

TRACTOR STORAGE

If your tractor is not going to be operated for an extended period of time (thirty days to approxi- mately six months), the tractor should be prepared for storage. Store the tractor in a dry and protected location. If stored outside, cover the tractor (includ- ing the tires) to protect it from the elements. The procedures outlined below should be performed whenever the tractor is placed in storage.

WARNING: Never store the tractor with fuel in the tank indoors or in poorly ventilated enclosures, where fuel fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light as on a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer, etc.

1.Change the engine oil and filter following the instructions provided in CHANGING THE ENGINE OIL AND FILTER in SECTION 5.

2.Drain and flush the cooling system. Refill with a minimum 50/50 antifreeze and water coolant solution. Use a higher percentage of antifreeze if the tractor will be subjected to temperatures below minus 30° F.
