Lubricate the hub pads or the wheel hub bore generously with a non-water-based
lubricant.

Before installing two-piece flange nuts, lightly lubricate the stud threads and the contact
surfaces between the cap nut and the washer as illustrated below with an SAE 30W oil.
This will minimize corrosion between the mating surfaces. Lubrication is not necessary
with new hardware.
Position one of the hub’s pilot pads at the twelve o’clock position. After positioning
wheels on the pilot pads, hand tighten all two-piece flange nuts, then tighten to the
recommended torque following the proper sequence shown below for your type wheel.
After 50-100 miles of operation, torque should be rechecked. Check torque frequently
from then on. If nuts require frequent tightening, studs break frequently, or wheel bolt
holes are pounding out, hardware and mounting practices should be reviewed.
