TRAILER
Your Correct Craft trailer is designed to cradle your boat securely and with a minimum
of pressure exerted against the hull under highway
and/or
launching and recovery
conditions. You can't be too good to the hull of your boat, so proper cradling
in
transit
or storage is essential.
SEALED BEARING
SYSTEM:
Your trailer wheel hubs are equipped with a posi-Iube
system that helps to seal the bearings against the intrusion of water and dirt. This
is
especially important since your trailer is the drive-on type so the wheels are submersed
while launching and recovering. Additionally, the cooling effect of water can cause debris
to be sucked into an unprotected hub causing rapid deterioration and bearing failure.
With the posi-Iube system, complete lubrication is achieved by a lubricating hole drilled
through the center of the spindle to a perpendicular hole between the rear seal and the
rear bearing. To lubricate the posi-Iube spindle, you simply remove the rubber plug,
install a standard grease gun and apply grease. The grease flows through the lubricating
hole to the rear seal area and toward the front of the assembly (see illustration). Sufficient
lubrication
is
present when grease begins to flow out of the metal end cap. This action
is
indicated
in
the illustration and grease flow is indicated by arrows.

BENEFITS
OF THE
POSI-LUBE
SYSTEM
• PROVIDES POSITIVE LUBRICATION BY
ELIMINATING AIR POCKETS IN THE HUB CAVITY.
• CLEAN. EASY MAINTENANCE.
NO
DISASSEMBLY
REQUIRED.
• ALLOWS YOU TO CHANGE GREASE IN HUBS IN
JUST
MINUTES BY PUMPING THE OLD GREASE
OUT WITH NEW GREASE.
If you need to change the grease
in
your hub, simply pump
in
new grease and watch until
all
old grease
is
purged. Stop when new grease begins to exit the metal end cap.
CAUTION: If the wheel bearing spindle nut Is removed for any reason, be sure to
replace the bendable tab lock washer with a new one. Failure
to
put on a new lock
washer could result in loosening of the spindle nut.
