3. Raise coach with jack, until wheel is off the ground.
4. Place additional blocking under frame for security support. DO
NOT depend fully on jack.
5. Be sure coach is solid and will not move with wheel and tire off.
6. Remove lug nuts when tire is off the ground.
7. Replace with spare tire and wheel onto hub.
8. Reinstall lug nuts and tighten firmly.
9. Drop tire and wheel onto ground after removing supports.
10. Now fully tighten and torque lug nuts at 90 to 120 pounds.
11. Place all equipment into coach or tow vehicle, blocking and jack.
12. Re-torque lug nuts after traveling 100 miles.
WHEEL BEARINGS
ALL wheel bearings are pre-lubricated during assembly of axle and
brakes.
Your coach may have “ULTRA LUBE’ method of having a grease
fitting in the end of axle. Remove rubber cap on the end of axle and
using a standard grease gun, you may place 6 to 8 shots of grease
into the bearings, (if you forgot to repack bearings), before leaving
on a trip. Don’t forget to correctly repack bearings as per
maintenance manual when you return home, using wheel bearing
grease.
Wheel Lugs
When the wheels are installed on your recreational vehicle, the lug
nuts must be tightened at 90-120 foot pounds of torque. Powder
coat painted wheels may require more torque attempts due to
thickness of paint. You must re-torque the wheel lugs at 50 and 200
miles. A decal on the wheel may require check torque earlier.
After your first trip, check the wheel lugs periodically for safety. The
wheel lugs should then be checked after winter storage, before
starting a trip or following extensive braking. The size of bolt head
or nuts is 13/16 inch standard and 3/4” for chrome nut.
Over torque
will damage components, especially if torque wheel lugs goes
over 150 pounds. Normally the “nut” fails first however the
embossing on the wheel can also be flattened, and then fail to
keep wheel tight.
Brakes – Electrical
Electric brakes on your recreational vehicle are designed to work in
conjunction with the hydraulic brakes on your tow vehicle. This
