Wondering if there's enough room to let a little air out for mowing? I have a bumpy lawn and the seat bottoms out under my hefty weight. Never had any experience with filled tires except knowing I have them...:D

Put the valve stems uppermost, then just bleed out air. The tires should not be more than about 3/4 full. If any liquid is expelled, rinse it off.

Viola!

I run a lower air pressure for mowing. If I have something on the 3PH I raise the pressure on the rear tires.

You should be able to let the pressure down. We are often in the ten lb range in the rears.

I have 16psi in the front and 11.5 in the rear. The tires have a nice flat contact patch. I've been experimenting with the tire pressures for the best ride when mowing. I still may change them some more. I also use 3 weights on the front for mowing.

And your rears are filled?

Cool...will be adjusting before the next mowing! Thanks!

I think they still need some adjustment but it is better than what Kubota recommends.
