Also applies to any service involving wheel or lug removal, during the life of the recre-
ational vehicle.
1. Prior to travel and after excessive braking, wheel lug nuts should be checked for torque.
Torque readings must fall within the Final Torque Values in chart above.
2. Torque specications should be checked using a proper torque wrench.
3. If the torque falls below the Final Torque Values, additional torque is required.
4. Check and re-torque lug nuts at 10 miles (16 Km), 25 miles (40 Km) and 50 miles (80
Km) and again periodically during travel. Refer to diagrams above for proper lug pat-
tern and Final Torque Values. Thereafter check and maintain torque according to the
Final Torque Values in the chart above.
The following labels showing the proper lug nut tightening pattern and a warning label are
located on the driver side of the A frame hitch on travel trailers, and on the driver side of the
pinbox on fth wheel units. Lug pattern label will vary according to number of wheel lugs.
