Figure 2. Checking Tire Pressure

Check Tire Pressures

Tire pressure should be checked periodically, and
maintained 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.
