Tightening the nuts
Figure 42 Nut tightening order
(1) - (6) nut tightening order, (L) length of wrench, (F) weight of user
The M18x1.5 wheel nuts should be tightened with a torque of 270 Nm.
Use a torque wrench to gradually tighten the nuts, alternating them diagonally in several steps, until the
required torque is reached. In the absence of a torque wrench, a normal spanner can be used. The wrench
arm (L), Figure (42), should be selected to suit the weight of the person (F) who tightens the nuts. Please
note that this tightening method is not as precise as when using a torque wrench.
Check the tightening of the wheels of the running axle:

after the first time you use the bale wrapper,

after the first run with a load,

after riding the first 1,000 km,

every 6 months of use or every 25,000 km.
In the case of intensive use, the check should be carried out at least every 100 km. Repeat the whole
procedure if the wheel was disassembled.
The nuts of the running wheels must not be tightened with impact wrenches, as there is a
danger that the permissible tightening torque may be exceeded, resulting in the break of
fastener's thread or the hub stud. The highest tightening accuracy is achieved with a
torque wrench. Before you start tightening, make sure that the correct tightening torque
is set.
