DRIVING & SAFETY
• 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.
NOTE: Loosen and tighten lug nuts in a star pattern sequence.
Sequence tighten to 50 ft. lbs. first, then sequence tighten to 500
lbs. Over-tightening can cause distortion.
WARNING: Never use wheels or lug nuts different than the
original equipment as this could damage the wheel or the mounting
system. Damage to the wheel or mounting system could cause a
wheel to come off while the recreational vehicle is in motion.
Front Wheels:
Slide the front wheel over the studs, being careful not to damage stud
threads. Snug the nuts in sequence, do not tighten them fully until all have
been seated. Tighten the nuts to 500 ft.lbs in sequence
(as shown in the illustration).
Dual Rear Wheels:
Slide the inner dual wheel over the studs, being careful not to damage the
stud threads. Align the handholds for valve access and slide the outer dual
wheel over the studs, again being careful not to damage the stud threads.
Snug the nuts in sequence, do not tighten them fully until all have been
seated. Tighten the nuts to 500 ft. lbs. using the sequence (as shown in the
illustration). 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 miles 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 the air
wrench output and adjust the line pressure for
the correct torque.
