Section 4: Vehicle Operation
Emergency Towing
If your recreational vehicle needs to be towed, please contact an emergency road service
provider or a qualified service facility for assistance.
Never allow anyone to go under the recreation vehicle while it is being lifted
and/or being towed.
Wheel Lugs
After your first trip, check the wheel lug torque periodically for safety. Check the wheel
lugs after winter storage, after a wheel removal, before starting a trip or following extensive
braking
:
1.
Use the correct star pattern sequence to attach the recreation vehicle wheels
2.
Start all nuts by hand to prevent cross threading.
3.
Tighten the nuts in the sequence shown.
4.
Lug nuts should be tightened in two stages. Lugs should be started by hand, then
torqued to intermediate values (Stage 1) on the chart then torqued according to the final
torque values on the chart.
NOTE:
The proper method of tightening wheel lug nuts is with a
properly calibrated torque wrench and socket, not with an impact
wrench or by hand. Do not use a 4-way lug wrench or any other type
of wrench that does not measure the actual pressure applied to the
lug nut. Lug nuts should be tightened according to the proper lug
pattern on your wheels. Refer to the Wheel Lug Nut Diagram below.
Check and tighten wheel lug nuts regularly to make sure they did not
loosen during travel. Wheel lug nuts must be applied and maintained at
the proper torque levels to prevent loose wheels, broken studs and possi-
ble separation of the wheel(s) from your recreation vehicle. The lug nuts
on the wheels of your recreation vehicle must be maintained according to
listed torque values (see
Wheel Lug Nut Torque Chart
.) Over-torqued
and/or under-torqued wheels may result in component failure.
Wheels should
ALWAYS
be mounted and properly torqued by a qualified
service technician using the proper tools.
Failure to maintain proper torque of the wheel lug nuts could lead to
separation of the tire and wheel while driving, possibly resulting in
property damage or personal injury.
