Tighten Wheel Hardware

IMPORTANT: To prevent machine damage from improper drive wheel hardware lubricated torque, always apply three drops of oil (SAE 30W) to lug bolts before attaching lug nuts.

1. Apply three drops of oil (SAE 30W) to threads of drive wheel lug bolts.

IMPORTANT: Damage to planetary hub and wheel can occur if the correct lug nut torque is not maintained. Tighten wheel lug nuts in a crisscross pattern to specification. Tighten wheel lug nuts after first 1 hour of use and every 10 hours thereafter until correct torque is maintained. Check wheel lug nuts torque after every 100 hours of use.

2. Check torque on wheel hardware. Tighten drive wheel nuts and front wheel hardware to specifications.
