Front Wheels:
Slide the front wheel over the studs. Use
caution to avoid damaging stud threads. Snug
the nuts in sequence.
Do not
tighten them fully
until all have been seated. Tighten the nuts in
sequence (refer to corresponding Chassis OEM
Manual).
Dual Rear Wheels:
Slide the inner dual wheel over the studs.
Use caution to avoid damaging threads. Align
the handholds for valve access and slide the
outer dual wheel over the studs again using
caution to avoid damaging the stud threads.
Before installing the wheels, lubricate
the hub pilot pads with a drop of oil to
prevent galling. Do not lubricate any
other wheel or hub surface.
For a hub with intermittent pilot pads,
position a pad at the twelve o’clock
position to center the wheel and reduce
runout.
See the Chassis OEM Manual for lug
nut torque specifications.
Snug the nuts in sequence but do not tighten
them fully until all are seated. Tighten the
nuts in sequence (as shown in chassis OEM
Manual). The hub mount wheels use two-
piece flange cap nuts for both front and rear
applications. No inner cap nuts are required.

Torque the Nuts Properly:
Tighten the wheel nuts to the
recommended lug nut torque. Do not
over tighten.
Maintain the nut torque at the
recommended level through planned
periodic checks or at 10,000 mile
intervals, whichever comes first.
If air wrenches are used, they must be
periodically calibrated for the proper
torque output. Use a torque wrench to
check air wrench output and adjust line
pressure for the correct torque.
CAUTION
Dual wheels require tightening the
lug nuts to the specified torque at
100 miles and again at 500 miles of
initial operations, also after rotation,
changing a flat or any wheel removal.
WEIgHINg THE MOTORHOME
P roper weight distribution, load management
and operating within established limitations
will aid in safe and enjoyable travel. The
information in this section outlines guidelines
and provides information on the proper
techniques for weighing to accurately
determine total weight, axle weights, balance
and tire inflation pressure. According
the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration, most tire failures are a result
of under-inflated tires.



Load management, weight distribution and
properly inflated tires are the responsibility
of the operator. The motorhome must be
weighed in a loaded, ready to travel condition
to correctly determine how much weight is
placed on each wheel position, then added
to determine the overall weight upon a
single axle. This may require one or more
adjustments and the motorhome subsequently
weighed again to verify proper and adequate
adjustments. The first thing to determine is the
maximum allowable weight of the motorhome.
This information is found on the Federal
Certification Label located adjacent to the
driver seat under Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.
This is the maximum allowable gross weight
and cannot be exceeded.
Federal Certification and Weight Labels:
There will be two Federal Certification build
labels and as many as three Federal Weight
label(s) affixed to the motorhome.
