MAINTENANCE CHART

MAINTENANCE
AVOID
(a.) Exposure to water or
condensation will cause
bearings to rust.
(b.) Never let bearings run
dry.
(c.) Never overpack wheel
bearings, especially in
the middle of hub. It will
trap heat if overpacked.
The wheel bearings in your
new Jayco tent camper are
pre-greased. It is recom-
mended that you repack these
bearings at 12,000 miles or at
the end of each season’s
camping to prepare for winter
months ahead.
Use only a multipurpose No.
1 or 2 good quality wheel
bearing grease.
If bearing or cone (race)
become pitted, replace any
damaged part.
NOTE: Should you be
concerned about heat in wheel
bearings, check them
occasionally while traveling
by placing hand on hub. You
will be able to hold your hand
momentarily on the hub.
Should it be extremely hot, it
is recommended to have the
bearings inspected by a
qualified service center.
NOTE: During break-in
period (first 500 miles) your
hubs may feel extra warm due
to brake shoes setting in with
the brake drum.
Wheel Bearings
Lug bolts must be checked at
10, 25, and 50 miles when new
or after tire removal, then every
3,000 miles. After this, lug
bolts should be periodically
checked for safety, especially
before any long trip and
extensive braking or a tire
change.
Tighten lug bolts to specified
torque using a cross tighten
sequence.
See “Changing the Tire &
Wheel” section of Chapter 7.
WARNING:
DO NOT ignore checking
wheel lug bolts. Failure to do
can cause wheel loss and an
accident.
