bushings by using an arbor press or soft face mallet, tap-
ping the bushing into the pivot tube until it contacts the
flange. Install pivot rod by soft face mallet after applying a
thin coat of medium grease to each end.
COZ Wheel - Monthly, or more often if you ride daily or on
rough roads, inspect your trailer’s wheel. Lift the trailer and
spin the wheel slowly. Check to make certain the wheel
does not wobble side to side.
If the wheel wobbles from side to side, your wheel may
need to be trued (straightened) or replaced. The COZ has a
nylon wheel and there is limited ability to straighten these
once they are misaligned. This is a job for a trained bicycle
mechanic. It requires special tools and knowledge.

Reinstall fork by rotating it from side to side and pushing it
down over the boom tube. When the fork is correctly
installed, the “boom” tube will penetrate the upper fork
bushing.
Tighten the fork by replacing the “boom” tube cap,
lock washer and tightening the pivot screw with a 5mm
Allen wrench. The pivot screw should be tightened to 43
ft/lbs of torque.
YAK Trailer Fork - The pivot screws for the front fork of
your trailer should be checked weekly for tightness. The
procedures are explained under YAK Front Fork Tightening
in the Assembly section.
The front fork pivots on Delrin Bushings and is prelubricat-
ed during manufacture
Fig. 40 . If the fork squeaks during
rotation use a minuscule amount of spray lubricant such as
TRI - FLO™. With minimal maintenance, the bushings will
give you years of service. See Maintenance Schedule for
other service information. Inspect for tightness of the bear-
ing to pivot rod assembly and replace approximately every
two years or when obvious looseness can be felt.
To remove rod and bushings, proceed as follows:
Remove pivot rod by removing existing pivot screw and
installing a 35mm long 5mm x .8 screw into the end. Tap
the screw head until 25mm are exposed on the opposite
end. Install screw on opposite end of pivot rod and pull
gently with pliers to remove pivot rod. Use a blind hole
puller and slide hammer to remove bushings, or insert a
6.5mm diameter x 280 mm punch through one bushing hole
and drive it out with gentle taps from a mallet. Reinstall
