STEP 1:
ASSEMBLE THE NOSE AND WHEELS TO THE FRAME
Nose Assembly
Note: for easier assembly it may be necessary to lay the truck horizontally to attach the nose.
1.
Position the nose (K) on the mounting brackets so the square holes align with each other.
2.
Insert one (1) square neck carriage bolt (A), with head of bolt toward the front of the nose plate, in
each of the four (4) holes. Secure each of the four (4) carriage bolts (K) with four (4) nylon top lock
nuts (B), tighten securely. (torque value of 120-140 in-lbs.)
Wheel Assembly
1.
Slide one (1) thick washer (F) on the axle, slide one (1) thin washer (G) on the axle.
2.
Slide wheel (L) onto the axle with the long hub portion facing in.
3.
Slide one (1) thick washer (G) on the axle.
4.
If using 1030 wheel, insert one (1) straight hairpin cotter (I) though hole on the end of the axle,
as shown in Figure 2.
5.
For all other wheels, insert one (1) 90 degree hairpin cotter (H).
6.
Repeat steps 1 through 5 for other wheel.
STEP 2:
ASSEMBLE THE HANDLE
1.
Position the handle assembly (J) so holes in the pivot sockets align with holes in the pivot plate,
with one (1) handle washer (E) between each of them. Note: washers must be placed in correct
location to ensure proper handle fit.
2.
Insert one (1) hex head bolt (C) through the pivot socket and pivot plate.
3.
Slide one (1) handle washer (E) on the hex head bolts and thread on one (1) locknut (D) by hand.
4.
Repeat steps 1 through 3 for other pivot socket.
5.
Using socket, tighten bolt to remove all free play, then loosen 1/2 turn. Adjust bolts as necessary to
allow handle to slide freely.
STEP 3:
ASSEMBLE THE LOAD CONTAINMENT ARM
(OPTIONAL ITEM)
1.
Insert both bolts (N) in the Load
Containment Arm brackets and the
extruded nose hole, as shown in Figure 3,
and tighten the nuts (R) securely. (torque
value of 120-140 in-lbs.)
2.
If required, tighten the other nuts on the
Load Containment Arm brackets until the
load containment arm can be repositioned
and remain in its repositioned
location. Do not over tighten.
