etc.
Removing the wheels

☞ Slightly loosen the wheel nuts of the wheel you want to remove
☞ Place a jack under the axle body, making sure it is standing firmly
☞ Raise the side of the axle from which you want to remove the wheel
☞ Check the machine is standing firmly
☞ Completely remove the wheel nuts
☞ Remove the wheel
Fitting the wheels
Proceed as follows:
☞ Place the wheel onto the wheel studs
☞ Tighten all wheel nuts part-way
