REPAIR
A. Front Wheel Replacement
Do not disassemble the castle nuts when you replace the front wheels.
It is only necessary to tighten the nuts so that the wheel turns freely on the axle with
minimum end play. (See Fig. 13) Tighten the nuts after replacing the wheels.
B. Rear Wheel Replacement
Do not disassemble the castle nuts when you replace the rear wheels.
It is only necessary to tighten the nuts so that the wheel turns freely on the axle with
minimum end play. (See Fig. 14) Tighten the nuts and put on the cotter Pin after
replacing the wheels.

C. Front Wheel Alignment
a. The front wheels should be “toe-in” from 1/8” to 1/4”. To check for alignment,
measure distance A and B between the centerline (CL) of the wheels. The proper toe-in
dimension A should be 1/8”-1/4” greater than dimension B.
b.
To adjust the alignments, loose the lock nuts on both sides of Front Tie Rods. To
make Dimension B smaller, scare the rod to the left. Adjust the rod to right direction to
make Dimension B larger. After adjusted to desired length, tighten the lock nut against
the rod end. Recheck the dimensions for proper alignment.
