90 Operator's Manual – Self-loading Trailer Anderson Group
To tighten them with a hand tool (such as a
pneumatic torque wrench), you will need to adjust
the tool to apply the correct tightening torque.
If you do not, the wheel studs and lug nuts may
become overloaded, which could result in them
being damaged or broken.
An impact wrench can be used to loosen the nuts,
but not to tighten them, since the tightening torque
cannot be controlled with this type of wrench.
Check and tighten the lug nuts:
l
After the first use.
l
After the first loaded run.
l
After the first 1,000 km.
l
Every 6 months or 25,000 km.
l
Each time a wheel is changed or removed.
See Table 16 for the tightening torque to apply to each nut.
7.7.3 Checking that the hubcaps are secure
Regularly check that the hubcaps are firmly in place and are in perfect condition. Immediately
replace missing or damaged hubcaps to prevent dirt from getting inside the hub, which could
damage the bearings.
l
For pop-on hubcaps, visually check that they are all the way on.
l
For hubcaps with screws, replace the gasket each time the hubcap is removed and tighten the
screws every 6 months.
7.7.4 Checking the condition and play of the wheel bearings
The lifespan of the wheel bearings depends on the operating conditions, load, speed, adjustments
and lubrication.
Check the condition and play of the wheel bearings:
l
After the first 50 hours or 1,000 km;
l
Every 6 months or 25,000 km.
To check the wheel bearings:
1. Lift the wheel slightly off the ground.
2. Slowly turn the wheel in both directions to check for any resistance.
