The maximum air pressure will be moulded onto the sidewall of the tires. If you have a FEL then I would run the fronts at the maximum allowed. That will make it easier to steer with a full bucket. If no FEL then fill them so the outside edges of the face of the tire are not quite in contact with a hard flat surface like your shop floor or driveway. The rear turf tires should be inflated so the outside edges of the face of the tire are not quite in contact with that hard flat surface with your most used attachement on the 3PH.
This will give you the best traction with the least surface damage to soft ground, sod or whatever else you are driving across. There may be times when you will want to adjust air pressure to suit attachements and surface conditions but the above is what works best for me. The manual may give you a ballpark pressure to go with but they can't know what attachments you have.

Are you running 75D or 33's ? Anything in the mid teens will do for
turfs on these . BX turf rears runs at 10psi for a good footprint :thumbsup:

Getting beyond the one size fits all!! Adjust the tires for you, first thing you should have a full tire of contact on the ground. Drive it on a dusty driveway and see how much of the tire has dust on it. The sidewalls can have some flex for ride comfort or for the fronts they may be more solid for loader work.

The tire should be making a full imprint on the ground, they should not be rounded up in the center!
