Tires/Wheels
Tire Pressure
ƽ
WARNING
Tire pressure greatly affects vehi-
cle handling and stability. Under-
pressure may cause tire to deflate
and rotate on wheel.
Overpres-
sure may burst the tire. Always
follow recommended pressure.
Since tires are low-pressure types,
a manual pump should be used.
Check pressure when tires are “cold”
before using the vehicle. Tire pres-
sure changes with temperature and
altitude. Recheck pressure if one of
these conditions has changed.
For your convenience, a pressure
gauge is supplied in tool kit.
TIRE PRESSURE
FRONT/REAR
MAX. 34 kPa (5 PSI)
UP to
150 kg
(330 lb)
MIN. 26 kPa (3.8 PSI)
Although the tires are specifically de-
signed for off-road use, a flat may still
occur. Therefore, it is recommended
to carry a tire pump and a repair kit.
Tire/Wheel Condition
Check tire for damage and wear. Re-
place if necessary.
Do not rotate tires. The front and rear
tires have a different size. The tires
are directional and their rotation must
be kept in a specific direction for prop-
er operation.
Wheel Removal
Loosen nuts then lift vehicle. Place a
support under vehicle. Remove nuts
then remove wheel.
At installation, it is recommended to
apply anti-seize lubricant on threads.
Gently tighten nuts in a criss-cross se-
quence then apply a final torque of
50 N•m (37 lbf•ft).
