It is extremely important to apply and maintain proper wheel mounting torque. Be sure to use only the fasteners matched to the cone angle of the wheel. Proper procedure for attach- ment of the wheels is as follows:

1.Start all wheel lug nuts by hand.

2.Torque all lug nuts in sequence.See Figure 34. DONOT torque the wheel lug nuts all the way down.Tighten each lug nut in 3 separate passes as defined by Table 10.
