MAINTENANCE
Read all of SAFETY and this section before attempting any procedure. Pay particular attention to Notices, Cautions, Warnings and Dangers.
Owner’s Guide
If only the front or rear of the vehicle is to
be raised, place the chocks in front and
behind each wheel not being raised to sta-
bilize the vehicle.
Lower the vehicle by reversing the lifting
sequence.
WHEELS AND TIRES
A tire explosion can cause severe injury or death. Never exceed the inflation pressure rating on
the tire sidewall.
To reduce the possibility of tire explosion, pressurize tire with small amounts 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 recommendation when seating a bead. Protect face
and eyes from escaping air when removing a 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.
DO NOT use low inflation tires on any E-Z-GO vehicle. DO NOT use any tire which has a recom-
mended inflation pressure less than the inflation pressure recommended in the owner’s guide.
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.

Use caution when inflating tires. Due to the low volume of the small tires, overinflation can occur in seconds. Overinfla-
tion 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 “Recommended Tire Pressures” on page 20 for
recommended tire inflation pressure. For outdoor applications 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 surfaces, tire inflation pres-
sure should be in the higher allowable range, but under no condition should inflation pressure be higher than recom-
