B. Bearing/Seal Inspection and Replacement
When inspecting bearings or seals:
1.
Inspect the grease seal for damage, tears, or cracks.
If there is no damage or leakage in not occurring,
the seal is in good condition.
If the seal is torn or cracked, then it should be re-
placed. The seal can be pried out of the hub with a
screw driver. Be sure to replace the seal using the
recommended replacement parts. Parts can be
obtained from your Four Winns® dealer.
2.
When inspecting the bearing, check for corrosion
and wear. If any rust or wear exists on the bearing,
then remove and replace with the recommended
parts listed in the table above.
3.
If the bearings are in good condition, repacking the
grease should be done at this time. Hand pack each
bearing individually using a premium water resis-
tant wheel bearing grease.

To reinstall hub, reverse the procedures listed above.
2.
It is important to tighten the spindle nut to approxi-
mately 50 ft. lbs. (12" wrench with full hand force).
Loosen the nut then finger tighten.
3.
Replace the cotter.
4.
When reinstalling wheel, the following tightening pro-
cedure is recommended by the manufacturer:
a.
Place wheel lug nuts on by hand to start.

Tighten initially to 15 - 20 ft. lbs. (Apply 20 pounds
of pressure to wrench 12" long) using cross tight-
ening sequence. Proceed to finish tightening
