Wheels and Tires
The machine is setting on two solid rubber front tires
and two pneumatic rear tires (Figure 73). Should one of
the front tires become damaged, remove one push nut
and the axle can be pulled out to replace a wheel. Use
a new push nut to secure the wheel.

The rear tires are pneumatic. The normal pressure is
15 - 20 psi. (103 - 137kPa). In this case, pressure is not
critical to function. The rear wheels are retained by a
push nut. Use a new push nut to secure the wheel.
Tilt Mechanism/Frame
The basic function of this machine requires the engine
and rotor to tilt forward until the rotor blades engage
the ground (Figure 74). This provides the self-
propelling action and the ability to clean down to the
surface.

The wheel frame stays level with the ground at all
times. There is a hinge point at the front that the engine
and rotor assembly pivots on (Figure 75).
