IMPORTANT: Install wheels with valve stems toward the inside.
Incorrect assembly can cause wheel nuts to loosen. Exceeding
recommended tire pressure can damage baler frame.
Whenever a wheel has been removed and installed, check wheel
nut torque after one hour of operation and repeat until nuts maintain
specified torque.
