BOLT TORQUE REQUIREMENTS TORQUE DATA FOR STANDARD NUTS, BOLTS, AND CAPSCREWS. Tighten all bolts to torques specified in chart unless otherwise noted. Check tightness of bolts periodically, using bolt chart as guide. Replace hardware with same grade bolt. NOTE: Unless otherwise specified, high-strength Grade 5 hex bolts are used throughout assembly of equipment.
WHEEL NUT TORQUE REQUIREMENTS It is extremely important to apply and maintain proper wheel mounting torque on your trailer axle. Torque is a measure of the amount of tightening applied to a fastener (nut or bolt) and is expressed as length times force. For example, a force of 90 pounds applied at the end of a wrench one foot long will yield 90 lbs/ft of torque.
BEARING INSPECTION/LUBRICATION Bearing Inspection Wash all grease and oil from the bearing cone using a suitable solvent. Dry the bearing with a clean, lint-free cloth and inspect each roller completely. CAUTION: Never spin the bearing with compressed air. THIS CAN DAMAGE THE BEARING. If any pitting, spalling, or corrosion is present, then the bearing must be replaced.
SEAL INSPECTION/BEARING ADJUSTMENT Seal Inspection and Replacement Whenever the hub is removed, inspect the seal to assure that it is not nicked or torn and is still capable of properly sealing the bearing cavity. If there is any question of condition, replace the seal. Note: If hubs are removed from an axle with the E-Z Lube feature, it is imperative that the seals be replaced BEFORE bearing lubrication.
E-Z LUBE LUBRICATION The procedure is as follows: 1. Remove the rubber plug from the end of the grease cap. 2. Place a standard manual grease gun onto the grease fitting located in the end of the spindle. Make sure the grease gun nozzle is fully engaged on the fitting. 3.
