AXLE ASSEMBLY 3.5
Axle Stud Replacement
1 Lower the boom arms and shut off the engine.
2 Raise and block clear of the surface the loader side of
the loader the wheel studs are to be changed on.
3 Remove the wheel the studs are to be replaced on.
4 Remove the damaged or broken stud by rotating the
axle so the damaged stud is at the 12:00 o’clock position
as shown in fig. C209. The axle “tower” is relieved, or
notch, in this location to allow stud removal without
removing the axle assembly.
2 Strike the stud with a hammer to remove from the
axle flange. (fig. C209).
3 Place a new stud in position behind the axle flange.
Line up the splines on the stud with the splines cut into
the axle flange. (fig. C210).
