*Standard tire, ply rating and inflation pressures.
Underinflation shortens the life of tires. A tire inflated in a shop area with a temperature of 65° to 70°F (18° to 21°C), will
be underinflated if the machine works in freezing temperatures.
The chart below shows the correct pressures for tires inflated in an area with a temperature of 650 to 70°F (18° to 21°C).
These pressures compensate for the temperature in which the machine will be working.
