IMPORTANT: Whenever a Hub (26) on a new Trailer requires assembly (or if a
Hub is disassembled for maintenance) the following procedures MUST be fol-
lowed:
A. Using a suitable solvent, thoroughly clean the Hub Set (26), Outer Bearings
(27), Castle Nut (28), Dust Cap (29), and the rest of the parts of the Hub As-
sembly of all grease, dirt, metal shavings, and all other foreign objects. These
parts must be cleaned, even if they are new or appear to be clean.
(See Figure B.)
B. Allow all parts to dry completely.
C. Make sure your hands are clean and the bearing packer (not included) is
clean.
D. Place fresh, clean bearing grease in the bearing packer.
E. With the grease-filled bearing packer in one hand and the Outer Bearing (27)
in the other, press the Bearing into the grease, forcing the grease inside the
slots in the Bearing. Continue doing this until every slot in the Bearing is
completely full of grease. (See Figure B.)
F. Finish assembling the Hub Assembly as explained below, making sure not to
get dirt or debris on any part of the assembly.
5.
Carefully slide the Hub Sets (26) over the spindles at each end of the Axle (10).
Insert the Outer Bearings (27) and Flat Washers (U) on the spindles. Screw a
Castle Nut (28) tightly onto each spindle. Then back the Castle Nut off slightly so
that the Hubs can just move freely. (See Figure B.)
6.
Insert a Cotter Pin (T) through the Castle Nut (28) and hole at the end of each
spindle, and spread the Cotter Pins. (See Figure B.)
7.
Fill the Dust Caps (29) with bearing grease. Then, press each Dust Cap onto the
Hub Sets (26). (See Figure B.)
8.
Install a Grease Fitting (R) into each hole located at the ends of the Axle (10).
