MAINTENANCE
TIRE REPAIR
If a leak or flat tire occurs due to a puncture, the tire may
be repaired using a plug-type patch. If the damage is from a
cut, or if the puncture cannot be repaired using a plug, the
tire should be replaced.
When operating your ATV in areas where transportation or
service facilities are not readily available, keep a plug-type
repair kit and tire air pump with you.
REPLACING TIRES
When tires are worn, the traction of the vehicle will be
decreased, which increases the chance of having an acci-
dent. Tires should be replaced when the depth on the tread
is 0.16 in. (4 mm) or less. Always use identical replacement
tires. Using improper tires on the unit could cause loss of
control, which could increase your risk of accident.
Have tires replaced by an authorized service center or a
qualified tire repair station.
TIRE MAINTENANCE
This ATV is equipped with low pressure tubeless tires of the
size and type listed below:
Front Rear
Size AT19 x 7-8 AT18 x 9.5-8
Tire Air Pressure
Check the air pressure in all tires before riding. Improper air
pressure will affect handling, steering response, traction, tire
life and rider comfort. Be sure tires are inflated to the pres-
sures shown below.
NOTE: Tire pressure should only be measured or
adjusted when tires are cold.
Recommended Pressure
3.6 psi ± 0.5 psi
(25 kPa ± 3.5 kPa)
WARNING:
Check the tire pressure carefully while inflating. Too much
air in the tire could cause the tire to burst, causing serious
personal injury.
WARNING:
Maintaining correct air pressure in the tires is very impor-
tant. Too little pressure could allow the tire to rotate off
the wheel rim. Too much pressure could cause the tire to
burst. Failure to maintain correct air pressure in the tires
could cause problems with vehicle operation and stability,
causing serious personal injury.
