Temporarily slide a lock collar fully onto the axle, and space it 2mm (3/32-inch) off the
axle flange. Secure it in place with a 1.5mm hex driver. Slide a wheel onto the axle,
followed by a second wheel collar, securing it in place by a 1.5mm hex driver. Use a felt-
tipped pen to place a mark on the inside edge of the inner lock collar and the outside
edge of the outer lock collar. Remove both lock collars and the wheel from the axle.
