3.3 Tire Inflation

The 9-inch sand-proof balloon tires are designed for optimal performance on soft surfaces. Proper inflation is crucial.

• Locate the included manual air pump.
• Attach the pump nozzle securely to the tire valve.
• Inflate each tire to the recommended pressure, typically between 0.15-0.20 BAR (2.2-2.9 PSI). Do not over-inflate.
• Important: Only use the provided manual air pump. Electric air pumps can cause over-inflation and damage the tires.
