Assembly Instructions
Step 7 – Tank Weldment
▪ Slide tire onto axle with valve stem facing out
▪ Slide wheel washer up against the wheel bearing
▪ Using a torque wrench, tighten the axle nut to 30-40 ft.-lb.
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)
