How to Check the Air Pressure on My Honda Rancher

Maintaining the correct air pressure in the tires of your Honda Rancher ATV is essential to your safety. Because the tires are what connect you and the ground, you need to have as much control over their operation as possible. If the tires are overinflated, you may experience difficulty making turns and riding smoothly. If the tires are underinflated, that can elevate your potential risk factors for puncturing tires or getting stuck in the mud.

Things You'll Need

• Tire pressure gauge
• Air supply

Instructions

1. Park your Honda Rancher ATV on a level surface.

2. Unscrew the valve stem cap by twisting it counterclockwise manually.

3. Push the tire pressure gauge down onto the valve stem.

4. Read the air pressure on the gauge. Add or release air as needed to keep the air pressure in each tire at 4.5 pounds per square inch (psi).

5. Repeat for your three remaining tires.
