the opposite side of the snow thrower.
Tire Pressure
The tires are overinflated for shipping purposes.
• Check tire pressure, by referring to tire sidewalls for
recommended tire pressure.
NOTE: If the tire pressure is not equal in all tires, the
unit may pull to one side or the other.
WARNING: Maximum tire pressure under
any circumstance is 30 psi. Equal tire
pressure should be maintained at all
times. Excessive pressure (over 30 psi)
when seating beads may cause tire/rim
assembly to burst with force sufficient to
cause serious injury.
