Wheel
Occasionally, wheel nuts should be
removed to apply anti-seize lubricant
on studs to ease future removal. This
is particularly important when vehicle
is used in salt-water environment or
in mud. Remove one nut at a time,
lubricate then retorque to 50 N•m
(37 lbf•ft).
Wheel Bearing/Bushings
Condition
Push and pull the wheels from the
upper edge to feel the play. See an
authorized Bombardier ATV dealer if
there is any play.

Tire Pressure
WARNING
Tire pressure greatly affects vehi-
cle handling and stability. Under-
pressure may cause tire to de
fl
ate
and rotate on wheel. Overpres-
sure may burst the tire. Always
follow recommended pressure.
Since tires are low-pressure types,
a manual pump should be used.
Check pressure when tires are “cold”
before using the vehicle. Tire pres-
sure changes with temperature and
altitude. Recheck pressure if one of
these conditions has changed.
For your convenience, a pressure
gauge is supplied in tool kit.
TIRE PRESSURE
FRONT/REAR
MAX.
34 kPa (5 PSI)
UP to
150 kg
(330 lb)
MIN.
26 kPa (3.8 PSI)
Although the tires are specifically de-
signed for off-road use, a flat may still
occur. Therefore, it is recommended
to carry a tire pump and a repair kit.
Tire/Wheel Condition
Check tire for damage and wear. Re-
place if necessary.
Do not rotate tires. The front and rear
tires have a different size. The tires
are directional and their rotation must
be kept in a specific direction for prop-
er operation.
Wheel Removal
Loosen nuts then lift vehicle. Place a
support under vehicle. Remove nuts
then remove wheel.
At installation, it is recommended to
apply anti-seize lubricant on threads.
Gently tighten nuts in a criss-cross se-
quence then apply a final torque of
50 N•m (37 lbf•ft).
