TROUBLESHOOTING

CAUTION: Avoid injury! Explosive separation of tire and rim parts is possible when they are serviced incorrectly:

Do not attempt to mount a tire without the proper equipment and experience to perform the job.

Do not inflate the tires above the recommended pressure.

Do not weld or heat a wheel and tire assembly. Heat can cause an increase in air pressure resulting in an explosion. Welding can structurally weaken or deform the wheel.

Do not stand in front or over the tire assembly when inflating. Use a clip-on chuck and extension hose long enough to allow you to stand to one side.

1.1. Check tires for damage.

2.Check tire pressure with an accurate gauge.

3.Add air, if necessary:

Tire Size

Pressure

 

 

 

 

Front: 11 x 4 - 5

138–173 kPa (20-25 psi)

 

 

Rear: 18 x 8.5 - 8

69–97 kPa (10–14 psi)

 

 

Servicing Caster Wheel Roller Bearings

7.Install bearings (E) and wheel spacer (F) (if removed), and new seals

(D).

8.Install wheel assembly (C), cap screw (B) and locknut (A).

9.Use a grease gun to fill hub until grease just appears at one of the seals

(D).

10.Lower machine.

Cleaning and Repairing Plastic Surfaces

Your authorized dealer has the professional materials needed to properly remove surface scratches from any plastic surfaces, do not attempt to paint over marks or scratches in plastic parts.

c

Do not wipe plastic surfaces when they are dry. Dry wiping will result in minor surface scratches.

Use a soft, clean cloth (bath towel, diaper, automotive mitt).

Do not use abrasive materials, such as polishing compounds, on plastic surfaces.

Do not spray insect repellent near machine.

1.Wash surface with clean water and a mild liquid automotive washing soap.

2.Dry thoroughly to avoid water spots.

Cleaning and Repairing Metal Surfaces

Cleaning:

Follow automotive practices to care for your vehicle painted metal surfaces. Use a high-quality automotive wax regularly to maintain the factory look of your vehicle’s painted surfaces.

Repairing Minor Scratches (surface scratch):

1. Clean area to be repaired thoroughly.

c

IMPORTANT: Avoid damage! Do not use rubbing compound on painted surfaces.

2.Use automotive polishing compound to remove surface scratches.

3.Apply wax to entire surface.

Repairing Deep Scratches (bare metal or primer showing):

1.Clean area to be repaired with rubbing alcohol or mineral spirits.

2.Use paint stick with factory-matched colors available from your authorized dealer to fill scratches. Follow directions included on paint stick for use and for drying.

3.Smooth out surface using an automotive polishing compound. Do not use power buffer.
