without excessive side-to-side motion, and be free of debris. Clean, adjust, or replace as
necessary.
Check that each wheel swivels freely in the shaft pivot collar, and the bushings are in
good condition. If any wheel does not swivel freely, clean and grease the shaft collar
assembly. Replace the bushings if necessary.
Replace any worn or damaged tires.
