Tire Inflation Pressure Adjustment
The tire pressure in a warm shop area (18° to 21°C (65° to 70°F) average temperature) will significantly change when you move the machine into freezing temperatures. If you inflate the tire to the correct pressure in a warm shop, the tire will be underinflated in freezing temperatures. Low pressure shortens the life of a tire.
When you operate the machine in freezing temperatures, see Special Publication, SEBU5898, "Cold Weather Recommendations".
Tire Operating Pressures
For normal operating conditions, inflate the tires to the following pressures:
Show/hide table
| Inflation Pressures For Normal Operating Conditions | ||
| Model | kPa | psi |
| CS-663E | 152 | 22 |
| CP-663E | 165 | 24 |
| CS-683E | 152 | 22 |
| Wheel Loader Type Tires | 207 | 30 |
Tire Ballast
Fill each tire with 430 L (114 US gal) of thirty percent calcium chloride and seventy percent water.
