Some Information About How You Can Replace Your Lawn Tractor Tires
When you need to change your lawn tractor tires you can choose to do it yourself or have a supplier or company do it. It is always a good idea to know how to change them yourself just in case those places are close or unavailable when you need a new tire put on.
Before changing your lawn tractor tires there are a few items you need to have at your side. Equip yourself with a valve stem tool, screwdriver, soapy water, and protective pads. After you get all your tools together you can start changing out your tractor tires.
The first step is to jack up your lawn tractor and remove the axle pins. Then remove all of the air out of your old tires which can normally be done by pulling down the valve. Sometimes the tire can stick to the rim so you may have to pry it off with some leverage.
After this, you will need to change the protective pads for your lawn tractor’s tires. Once you have taken two of the tire irons out, place them above the tire’s rim. You will need three tire irons to help bead the tire free from the wheels. After removing the bottom and top beads you should clean the tube with your soapy water. Make sure to clean the tube thoroughly to get rid of any dirt or foreign objects.
The final step is to put your brand newly bought tractor tire set on and seat all of the beading. After installing the stem, inflate the new tire and mount your new tire to finish the installation process. Asking a friend to help you is always smart your first time to make sure there are no mistakes and that the tire goes on smoothly. If you miss any steps you could run the risk of having your tire come off while your tractor is in use and even cause injury.
