61TIRES, WHEELS AND BALLAST
WHEEL ADJUSTMENT
To avoid personal injury or death:
A When working on slopes or when working with
trailer, set the wheel tread as wide as practical
for maximum stability.
A Support tractor securely on stands before
removing a wheel.
A Do not work under any hydraulically supported
devices. They can settle, suddenly leak down,
or be accidentally lowered. If necessary to work
under tractor or any machine elements for
servicing or adjustment, securely support them
with stands or suitable blocking beforehand.
A Never operate tractor with a loose rim, wheel,
or axle.
