with the brake drum.
Lug bolts must be checked at
50 &id 200 miles wher? your
coach is new. After this, lug
bolts should be
checked
periodically
o r
safety,
especially before any long
trip and extensive braking.
Tighten lug bolts to 85-95
ft.
pounds torque using a cross
tighten sequence of 1-3-2-4.
Use a small quantity of
grease
