Inspecting the Tires

Check the tire condition at least every 100 hours of
operation. Operating accidents, such as hitting curbs,
can damage a tire or rim and also disrupt wheel
alignment, so inspect tire condition after an accident.
Check the wheels to ensure that they are mounted
securely. Torque the front bolts to 135–165 ft.-lb.
(183–224 N•m) and the rear lug nuts to 45–65 ft.-lb.
(61–88 N•m).

Adjusting the Front Suspension

The ride height of each side of the vehicle can be
adjusted.
1. Jack the front end of the vehicle off of the
