the front wheels.

2. Thoroughly clean the bearings using solvent and
allow them to dry.
3. Coat the inner and outer bearings with grease
completely. Be careful not to contaminate the
grease. This could cause internal damage
and shorten the life span of the bearings.
Contaminants include dust, dirt, sand, water or
other foreign particles.
4. Install the inner and outer bearings. The grease
should allow the bearings to stick to the bearing
cups inside the wheel assembly.
NOTE
The inner bearing has a larger diameter than the
outer bearing. When installing, make sure the
bearings are inserted tapered-end first.
5. From the back side of the wheel, place the
grease seal on the hub with the tapered end
facing inwards.
