Some Advice On How To Replace Your Lawn Tractor Tires

By:


When it is time to change your lawn tractor tires most people have companies and suppliers change them out for them. However, anyone who owns any lawn care equipment should know how to change their own tires out. Just in case those places are closed whenever you need them.

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.

The next step is to replace the protective pads on your lawn tractor tire set. Remove the tire irons and put them above the tire rims. Using about 3 tire irons will help you get the beads free from the wheel. After removing the bottom and top beads, you then want to use your soapy water to clean the tube thoroughly inside and out.

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.
