SECTION 3 - LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE

AS REQUIRED

Special Tie Rod style dual wheels ((32) dual wheels)

a.It is only permissible to install the inner wheel with the rim inset (narrow tread width). Do not torque the wheel lug nuts at this time.

b.Place a jack under the axle housing and raise one side. Remove every second wheel mounting stud, 1, from the wheel rim. Be sure a stud is removed on both sides of the positioning lugs.

NOTE: Try not to remove a stud which is aligned with the tube valve stem. Valve stem access will then be hampered by a dual rod later.

e. Install the tie rod flanged backing nut assembly into the holes in the inner wheel. Secure each tie rod with an inner tie rod flanged locknut, 5. Do not torque.

f.Install a spacer, 6, into the inside of the inner wheel rim. Be sure the positioning lugs on the inner wheel (one lug) and the spacer (two lugs) interlock.

g.Lightly tap the spacer for a snug fit to the inner wheel.

h.Rotate the outer wheel so that the positioning lugs lock together - one lug on the inside of the outer rim and two on the spacer. All tie rods must protrude through the holes provided on the outer wheel, 7.

NOTE: The outer wheel must be inset the same as the inner wheel when installed.

NOTE: Install the wheels so that both inner and outer treads face the same direction.
