Wheel Installation
It is extremely important to apply and maintain proper wheel
mounting torque.
WHEEL SLOTTED NUTS MUST BE INSTALLED AND MAINTAINED AT THE PROPER TORQUE
TO PREVENT LOOSE WHEELS, A BROKEN NUT, AND POSSIBLE SEPARATION OF WHEEL
FROM THE AXLE.
Tighten the slotted nuts to the proper torque to prevent wheels
from coming loose. Use a torque wrench to tighten the slotted
nuts. The proper procedure for attaching wheels is as follows:
1.
If not already installed, install shaft key
