ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Note: For additional references to the parts listed below, refer to the Assembly Diagram
near the end of this manual.
To Assemble the Tires, Wheels, and Axle:
IMPORTANT! Whenever a Hub (A9) on a new unit requires assembly (or a
Hub is disassembled for maintenance), the following procedures MUST be
followed:
Using a suitable solvent, thoroughly clean the Bearings (A9), Seal (A9), Castle Nut
(11), and the rest of the parts of the Hub Assembly (A9) of all grease, dirt, metal
shavings, or any other foreign object. The parts must be cleaned even if they
are new or appear clean.
Allow all parts to dry completely.
Make sure your hands are clean and the bearing packer (not included) is also
clean.
Place fresh, clean bearing grease in the bearing packer.
With the grease-filled bearing packer in one hand and the Bearing (A9) in the other,
press the Bearing into the grease, forcing the grease inside the slots in the Bearing.
Continue doing this until every slot in the Bearing is completely full of grease.
During the rest of the assembly, be careful not to get any dirt or debris on any
part of the hub assembly.
