ter the jack under the rear frame crossmember. Raise the
vehicle enough to place a jack stand under the outer
ends of the rear axle.
Lower the jack and test the stability of the vehicle on the
two jack stands.
Place the jack at the center of the front axle. Raise the
vehicle enough to place jack stands under the frame
crossmember as indicated.
Lower the jack and test the stability of the vehicle on all
four jack stands.
If only the front or rear of the vehicle is to be raised, place
the chocks in front and behind each wheel not being

inflation pressure rating on tire sidewall.
Use caution when inflating tires. Due to the low volume of
the small tires, overinflation can occur in seconds. Over-
inflation could cause the tire to separate from the wheel
or cause the tire to explode.
Tire inflation should be determined by the condition of the
terrain. See GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS section for
recommended tire inflation pressure. For outdoor appli-

cations with major use on grassy areas, the following

should be considered. On hard turf, it is desirable to have
a slightly higher inflation pressure. On very soft turf, a
lower pressure reduces the possibility of tires cutting into
the turf. For vehicles being used on paved or hard sur-
faces, tire inflation pressure should be in the higher
allowable range, but under no condition should inflation
pressure be higher than recommended on tire sidewall.
Outside End
All four tires should have the same pressure for opti-

mum handling characteristics. Be sure to install the valve
dust cap after checking or inflating.
The vehicle is fitted with low pressure tubeless tires
mounted on one piece rims; therefore, the most cost
effective way to repair a puncture in the tread is to use a
commercial tire plug.

To reduce the possibility of tire explosion, pres-
surize tire with small amount of air applied inter-
mittently to seat beads. Due to the low volume of
the small tires, overinflation can occur in sec-
onds. Never exceed the tire manufacturer's rec-
ommendation when seating a bead. Protect face
and eyes from escaping air when removing valve
core.
To reduce the possibility of severe injury caused
by a broken socket when removing wheels, use
only sockets designed for impact wrench use.
Use caution when inflating tires. Overinflation
could cause the tire to separate from the wheel or
cause the tire to explode, either of which could
cause severe injury.
