Lug Nut Torque Requirements
It is extremely important to apply and maintain proper wheel
mounting torque on the trailer. Be sure to use only the fasteners
matched to the cone angle of the wheel. Proper procedure for
attachment of the wheels is as follows:
WBH-16EAWD POWER BUGGY — MAINTENANCE
Tires/Wheels/Lug Nuts
Tires and wheels are a very important and critical components
of the trailer. When specifying or replacing the trailer wheels it is
important the wheels, tires, and axle are properly matched.
DO NOT attempt to repair or modify a wheel.
DO NOT install an inter-tube to correct a leak
through the rim. If the rim is cracked, the air
pressure in the
inter-tube may
cause pieces of
the rim to explode (break-off) with
great force and can cause serious
eye or bodily injury.
Tires Wear/Inflation
Tire inflation pressure is the most important factor in tire life.
Pressure should be checked cold before operation. DO NOT
bleed air from tires when they are hot. Check inflation pressure
weekly during use to insure the maximum tire life and tread
wear.
Table 4 (Tire Wear Troubleshooting) will help pinpoint the causes
and solutions of tire wear problems.
ALWAYS wear safety glasses
when removing or installing force
fitted parts. Failure to comply may
result in serious injury.
3. After first road use, retorque all lug nuts in sequence
(Figure 25). Check all wheel lug nuts periodically.
1. Start all wheel lug nuts by hand.
2. Torque all lug nuts in sequence. See Figure 25. DO NOT
torque the wheel lug nuts all the way down. Tighten each lug
nut in 3 separate passes as defined by Table 5.
