OPERATION AND SERVICE INFORMATION Read all of Manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions, Dangers and Warnings Place the jack at the center of the front axle. Raise the vehicle enough to place jack stands under the frame crossmember as indicated. Lower the jack and test the stability of the vehicle on all four jack stands. If only the front or rear of the vehicle is to be raised, place the chocks in front and behind each wheel not being raised to stabilize the vehicle. Lower the vehicle by reversing the lifting sequence. Ref Liv 4S View from Underside of Vehicle Fig. 9 Lifting the Vehicle WHEELS AND TIRES Tire Repair Tool List Qty.

Never exceed inflation pressure rating on tire sidewall. To reduce the possibility of tire explosion, pressurize tire with small amount of air applied intermittently to seat beads. Due to the low volume of the small tires, overinflation can occur in seconds. Never exceed the tire manufacturer's recommendation when seating a bead. Protect face and eyes from escaping air when removing valve core. To reduce the possibility of severe injury caused by a broken socket when removing wheels, use only sockets designed for impact wrench use. Use caution when inflating tires. Overinflation could cause the tire to separate from the wheel or cause the tire to explode, either of which could cause severe injury. Do not use low inflation pressure tires on any E-Z-GO vehicle. Do not use any tire which has a recommended inflation pressure less than the inflation pressure recommended in Owner's Manual. Use caution when inflating tires. Due to the low volume of the small tires, overinflation can occur in seconds. Overinflation could cause the tire to separate from the wheel or cause the tire to explode. Tire inflation should be determined by the condition of the terrain. See GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS section for recommended tire inflation pressure. For outdoor applications with major use on grassy areas, the following should be considered. On hard turf, it is desirable to have a slightly higher inflation pressure. On very soft turf, a lower pressure reduces the possibility of tires cutting into the turf. For vehicles being used on paved or hard surfaces, tire inflation pressure should be in the higher allowable range, but under no condition should inflation pressure be higher than recommended on tire sidewall. All four tires should have the same pressure for optimum handling characteristics. Be sure to install the valve dust cap after checking or inflating. The vehicle is fitted with low pressure tubeless tires mounted on one piece rims; therefore, the most cost Page 8 Owner's Manual and Service Guide
