Mounting Tires
When seating tire beads on rims, never exceed maximum inflation pressures specified by tire manufacturers for mounting tires. Inflation beyond this maximum pressure may break the bead, or even the rim, with dangerous explosive force. If both beads are not seated when the maximum recommended pressure is reached, deflate, reposition tire, relubricate bead and reinflate. Detailed agricultural tire mounting instructions, including the necessary safety precautions, are available from your local tire manufacturer agents. IMPORTANT: Never operate forage harvester with tires at shipping pressure. Keep valve caps screwed down on valve stems to prevent foreign material from accumulating in the valve core. Check tire pressure frequently, referring to tire pressure charts. Required pressure may vary as load changes with installation of different harvesting units. |

CAUTION:
Failure to follow proper procedures when mounting a tire on a wheel or rim can produce an explosion which may result in serious injury or death. Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have the proper equipment and experience to perform the job. Have it done by your John Deere dealer or a qualified tire repair service.
