TIRES AND WHEELS

Correct tire pressure is crucial to the proper operation of your

UXV500. Consult the values listed below or the SPECIFICATIONS

section of this manual for tire pressure guidelines. Incorrect tire

pressure can cause poor handling, instability, and could cause

you to lose control of your vehicle.

Press down on the UXV500’s brake pedal. If the pedal does not

feel firm, or if it feels soft or "weak," the brake system could be low

on fluid or have a leak. Is so, refer to the GENERAL MAINTE-

NANCE section of this manual for instructions. Do not use your

UXV500 unless the brakes are operating normally.

Test the parking brake to confirm that it locks the wheels into po-

sition, then disengage it to release the brake. The brakes on your

Side-by-Side vehicle are essential for safety and could fail if they

are not maintained properly.

Your UXV500’s accelerator pedal should have a free, smooth range

of motion. If it seems to "stick" at any point, or does not return

when released, refer to the GENERAL MAINTENANCE section

of this manual for instructions. Driving your UXV500 with a stick-

ing accelerator can cause you to lose control of your vehicle and

may cause an accident. Do not drive your UXV500 if the accel-

erator action is not smooth and the pedal does not return after it is

released.

Front wheel air pressure: 10 psi (0.7 kgf/cm²)

With your vehicle’s engine running and parking brake applied, check

the transmission operation by shifting into each drive mode: for-

ward, neutral, and reverse. After testing, shift back into neutral and

turn the engine off before exiting the vehicle.

Check:

1 . Tire pressure

2 . Tire surface (tread and sidewall)

While checking your UXV500's tire pressure, inspect the tread

and the sidewalls of the tires for cracks, cuts, or other damage.

Immediately replace any tire that is damaged..
