Tire Replacement:

Your ATV has low-pressure tubeless tires. Air is sealed by the contact

surfaces of the inner wheel rim and the tire bead. If the inner wheel rim or

tire bead is damaged, air may leak. Be extremely careful not to damage these

sections when replacing tires.

It is very important to use the proper tools when repairing or replacing tires

in order to protect the tire bead or wheel rims. Have this work done by your

authorized service center or a qualified tire repair station.

When breaking the tire bead loose from the wheel, be extremely careful not to

damage the inner wheel rim surface or the tire bead.

Tubeless Tire Repair:

If a leak or flat tire occurs due to a puncture, the tire may be repaired using

a plug type patch. If the damage is from a cut, or if the puncture cannot be

repaired using a plug, the tire should be replaced. When operating your ATV

in areas here transportation or service facilities are not readily available, it

is strongly recommended that you bring a plug type repair kit and a tire air
pump with you.

WARNING

Overfilling the air to the tires could be hazardous.

If you put too much air into the tire, the tire may burst causing severe

injury.

Check the air pressure from time to time while gradually inflating the tire,

until the specified air pressure is obtained.

WARNING

Using tires that have been installed incorrectly could be hazardous.

The ATV may have unusual handling if the tires are installed incorrectly.

The tires are intended to rotate in a specific direction, as indicated by the

arrows on the sidewall of each tire. Install tires correctly so they rotate in

the proper direction.
