REMOVAL AND REFITTING OF WHEEL BOLTS
With the hub removed from the axle, support it by placing blocks under
the wheel flange. Using the wheel bolt removal tool (21205455) drive out
the wheel bolts (fig. 20).
To replace wheel bolts, turn the hub over, oil seal end upwards, and
support the hub on the brake drum aligning the holes in both hub and
drum. Using the wheel bolt driving tool (21211274) drive the bolts home
in turn (fig. 21).

FITTING OF THE POLE WHEEL
With the hub removed from the axle, place it, oil seal end upwards, on a
clean, flat surface and cover the bore with a clean cloth to protect the
bearings and grease from contamination. Check that the pole wheel
mounting spigot on the hub is clean and free from rust using medium
emery paper to clean up if necessary. Ensure no emery dust or other
FIG. 20
debris contaminates the bearings or grease.
The pole wheel (21221064) can be fitted hot or cold using the seal driving
tool (21221510). If fitting hot, heat the pole wheel evenly to a maximum
of 150°C using a hot plate or induction heater and place onto the hub
spigot ensuring it fully seats. If fitting cold, use the oil seal driving tool to
drive the pole wheel onto the hub spigot ensuring it bottoms out against
the mounting shoulder (fig. 22).
