Checking Tire Pressure
MIF
1. Check tires for damage.
2. Check tire pressure with an accurate gauge.
3. Add air, if necessary:
c CAUTION: Avoid injury! Fuel vapors are
explosive and flammable:
• Shut engine off before filling fuel tank.
• Do not smoke while handling fuel.
• Keep fuel away from flames or sparks.
• Fill fuel tank outdoors or in well ventilated
area.
• Clean up spilled fuel immediately.
• Use clean, approved non-metal container to
prevent static electric discharge.
• Use clean, approved plastic funnel without
screen or filter to prevent static electric
discharge.
IMPORTANT: Avoid damage! Dirt and water in fuel
can cause engine damage:
• Clean dirt and debris from the fuel tank opening.
• Use clean, fresh, stabilized fuel.
• Fill the fuel tank at the end of each day’s
operation to keep condensation out of the fuel tank.
• Use a non-metallic funnel with a plastic mesh
strainer when filling the fuel tank or container.
A
c CAUTION: Avoid injury! Explosive separation of
a tire and rim parts can cause serious injury or
death:
• DO NOT attempt to mount a tire without the
proper equipment and experience to perform
the job.
• Always maintain the correct tire pressure. DO
NOT inflate the tires above the recommended
pressure. Never weld or heat a wheel and tire
assembly. The heat can cause an increase in
air pressure resulting in a tire explosion.
Welding can structurally weaken or deform the
wheel.
• When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and
extension hose long enough to allow you to
stand to one side and NOT in front of or over
the tire assembly.
• Check tires for low pressure, cuts, bubbles,
damaged rims or missing lug bolts and nuts.
