in the desired hole location (Figure 13).
Note:
Use a tapered punch to help align the holes.

Adjusting the Control Rods.
Important:
You must adjust the control rods
and the brake linkage when you change the
axle positions for proper traction and brake
function.

spacers to match with the axle hole selected
