TYRES
WARNING
To avoid serious injury or death:
Do not attempt to mount a tyre on a rim. Only
a qualified person with the proper equipment
should mount a tyre on a rim.
Always maintain the correct tyre pressure.
Do not inflate the tyres above the recommended
pressure shown in the Inflation pressure
section.
(See Inflation pressure of tyres on page 73)
IMPORTANT :
Do not use tyres other than those approved by
KUBOTA.
When you intend to mount different size of tyres
from equipped ones, consult your dealer about
front drive gear ratio for details.
Excessive wear of tyres may occur due to
improper gear ratio.
1. Inflation pressure of tyres
Although the tyre pressure is factory-set to the
prescribed level, it naturally drops slowly in the course
of time. Thus, check the tyre pressure everyday and
inflate as necessary.
