Changing Front Tires - Dane Technologies QuicKART 2000 Series Service Manual

FRONT DRIVE TIRES:
Turn QuicKART off and remove key.
QuicKART must be on a flat surface. Make sure the automatic brake is functional and
on.
Use protective eye wear at all times.
1) Slightly loosen the four (4) lug nuts, about 1/2 turn, from the wheel needing
service. Use a 9/16-inch socket on the QK 2000 12-inch tires. Use a 5/8-inch
socket on the 16-inch tires for the QK 2500. IMPORTANT: Do not remove any of
the nuts; only slightly loosen them while the wheel is still on the ground.
2) Use a jack to lift the front of the QuicKART off the ground approximately 2 to 3
inches. Insert a sturdy and stable block under the frame to hold it securely in this
elevated position.
3) Unscrew the four 9/16-inch or 5/8-inch, front wheel lug nuts and place them in a
location where they will not become lost. Remove the wheel. The new or
repaired wheel is placed back on the front hub with the tire stem facing out.
Replace the 4 lug nuts with the beveled side toward the inside and tighten.
Using the jack, lift the QuicKART off the supporting block (see item #2 above). Remove
the block and use the jack to lower the QuicKART to the ground. Tighten the 4 lug nuts
again ensuring that they are tightened to a minimum of 50 foot-pounds torque.
