Grease the Steer Axle Wheel
Bearings, 2WD Models
Maintaining the steer axle wheel bearings is
essential for safe machine operation and service
life. Operating the machine with loose or worn
wheel bearings may cause an unsafe operating
condition and continued use may result in
component damage. Extremely wet or dirty
conditions or regular steam cleaning and pressure
washing of the machine may require that this
procedure be performed more often.
1 Loosen the wheel lug nuts. Do not remove
them.
2 Block the non-steering wheels. Center a lifting
jack under the steer axle.
3 Raise the machine approximately 6 inches
(15 cm). Place blocks under the drive chassis
for support.
4 Remove the lug nuts. Remove the tire and
wheel assembly.
5 Check for wheel bearing wear by attempting to
move the wheel hub side to side, then up and
down.
Result: There should be no side to side or up
and down movement.
Skip to step 10 if there is no movement.
