Remove Front Wheels—Dual Wheels

  1. CAUTION: To avoid injury or death, raise feeder house and lower safety stop before starting installation. Some assembly steps will require you to work under the feeder house.

    Without safety stop engaged, feeder house can suddenly lower, causing serious crushing injury or death.

    A - Jack

    B - Front Axle

    Raise front end of machine with jack (A).



  4. CAUTION: To help prevent personal injury caused by unexpected movement of the machine, be sure machine is stable after blocking. Do not support machine on cinder blocks, hollow tiles or props that may crumble under continuous load. Do not work on a machine that is supported solely by a jack.

    Be sure front axle rests on blocking before attempting to remove wheels.

    Position solid blocking under front axle (B). Lower machine onto blocking, making sure no load shift is seen or felt.

  5. CAUTION: Wheel assemblies are heavy, awkward to handle and difficult to control due to extreme offset of tire and rim. Two service technicians are required for wheel removal.

    While supporting outer wheel assembly, remove wheel bolts, spacers and front wheels. Move wheel assemblies away from machine.

    NOTE: Machine can be transported with inner wheels left in-place. Likewise, outer wheels can be serviced off the machine while leaving inner wheels undisturbed.

    Follow same steps to remove inner wheels.

  • Break wheel bolts loose one turn.
  • Support wheel assembly.
  • Remove wheel bolts, spacer ring and inner wheel.
