Tightening Instructions for 10K Hubs
1.
Proper setting for the tapered roller bearings is described in the following procedure. Always use a new
cotter pin when making adjustments to the hubs.
2.
Tighten the castle nut to 50 foot pounds while turning hub clockwise. Then back the nut off 1/2 of a
turn. Spin the hub 2 or 3 times. While slowly turning hub clockwise, finger tighten the castle nut until
castle nut notch lines up with hole in axle. If notch will not line up, back off nut to previous notch.
3.
Put the cotter pin in the axle hole. Before bending the cotter pin, spin the hub. The hub should free
wheel from 1/2 to 1 full turn.
4.
If the hub spins the right amount, finish installing the cotter pin by bending the ends.
5.
Coat the inside of the dust cap with a thin coat of grease by using your gloved finger. Then install on
hub using the right dust cap driver.
6.
Wipe off all excess grease from hub and axle.
There should not be any drag noticed when spinning a tire installed on a hub. If the axle nut
is too tight, the rollers of the wheel bearings will remove the grease from the bearing races,
decreasing the life of the bearings.
TIRES
Periodically check tire inflation pressure. Tires should be inflated to manufacturer’s suggested specifications
Higher pressures may cause excessive bouncing over rough ground. Lower pressures may cause excessive
wear. Recommended
COLD
pressures are shown below.
TIRE
Max PSI
Galaxy, Super Soft R-3
34 PSI
AVOID PERSONAL INJURY. DO NOT work under Rock Picker without support blocks to
keep the frame from falling.
Batt Springs
Tighten the eyebolts on the batt springs until they bottom out on the adjustment tab. Occasionally check and
retighten the batt springs.
IMPORTANT: Do not over torque the batt eyebolts as this may weaken the shank and reduce the life of the
bolt."
Do not overtighten the batt springs as this will cause damage to the springs and reduce the
cushioning effect when picking larger rocks.
Hydraulics
Before applying pressure to the hydraulic system, be sure all connections are tight and that the hoses are not
damage.
