Front Wheel Removal

up the MEWP until all the wheels are off the
ground. Set the MEWP on stands adequately
rated to support the weight of the machine.
2. Remove and discard the cotter pin.
3. Remove and set aside the castle nut.
4. Use two 3/8"-24 bolts with a hub puller to remove
the wheel.
5. Use a hub puller to remove the wheel from the
motor.
Front Wheel Install
1. Install the new wheel onto the spindle.
2. Install the castle nut. Finger tighten the nut.
3. Torque the castle nut to 203 Nm (150 ft-lb).
4. Insert a 1/8" x 2" cotter pin.
5. If the holes do not align to install the cotter pin,
continue to torque the castle nut clockwise until
the next hole is visible.
6. Make sure the cotter pin is pushed in completely.
7. Bend the ends of the cotter pin to secure the
castle nut.
8. To limit rust bleed, it is recommended that a
few drops of grease be applied to the two small
tapped holes on the front wheels.
