ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:
Tools needed -- two 7/16” wrenches, two 1/2” wrenches, 3/4”
socket with ratchet & extension, needle nose pliers and a grease
gun with fitting.
IMPORTANT ASSEMBLY TIP: Do not tighten any nut and
bolt combinations completely until all parts are assembled
together! Finger tighten plus one turn of a wrench only!
This will temporarily hold the lock nut on the bolt while
helping alignment of all parts! After all parts are assembled
together, all nut & bolt combinations must be completely
tightened.
1. Insert rear tongue tube (TK81) to the welded-on “U”-bracket
located on the axle tube (TK80) using (1) provided 5/16-18 x
2-3/4” bolt, nyloc nut and 5/16” washer. SEE FIGURE 1 OR 2.
2. Insert the front hitch tongue (TK85) and the rear hitch tongue
(TK87) into the connector pocket (TK89) and secure using (2)
provided 5/16-18 x 2-1/4” bolts and nyloc nuts. SEE FIGURE
1 OR 2.
3. Attach the assembled hitch tongue to the rear tongue tube
using (2) provided 5/16-18 x 4” bolts, nyloc nuts and (4) steel
washers. Be sure the entire tongue assembly is aligned before
tightening. SEE FIGURE 1 OR 2.
NOTE: Front tongue does not go inside rear tongue. Front
tongue bolts on top of rear tongue.
4. Slide the axle plate (300705) over the short end of axle
spindle (TK48). Thread the short end of axle spindle into the
axle tube until tight. Back off the axle spindle until holes are
aligned and secure using (1) provided 1/4-20 x 1-3/4” bolt and
nyloc nut. SEE FIGURE 1 OR 2. Repeat this step for the other
side.
FOR TX158
5. Support the trailer far enough off the ground for the assem-
bly of the wheels. Slide the wheel onto the threaded axle
spindle with grease fitting facing outward. Secure in place
following this order: wheel, 3/4” washer, 3/4” crown nut and
cotter pin. Back crown nut off just enough so wheel spins
freely and crown nut slot aligns with hole in threaded axle
spindle. Insert cotter pin. Using a needle nose pliers, bend
cotter pin ears around so it will not come off the axle spindle.
Repeat this step for remaining wheel. SEE FIGURE 1.
IMPORTANT NOTE: You must grease the bearings of each
wheel. Using a grease gun, pump high-quality grease into
the bearings by attaching to grease fitting located on wheel
hub. Check the grease level frequently to prevent bearings
from seizing.
