Step 1 – Wheel Assembly
NOTE: Axle nuts are installed (hand tight only) on axles. Remove
from wheel prior to beginning this step. They will be re-installed.
▪ Slide tire onto axle with valve stem facing out.
▪ Slide wheel washer up against the wheel bearing.
▪ Thread axle nut onto axle.
▪ Using a torque wrench, tighten the axle nut to 30-40 ft.- lbs.
Turn hub to ensure proper bearing seating.
▪ Loosen the axle nut until loose enough to turn the axle nut with your
fingers.
▪ Re-tighten the axle nut until finger tight.
▪ Insert cotter pin through hole in axle nut and axle. Bend and spread
prongs in opposite directions so the axle nut will not come off (make
sure the tire spins freely).
