Gluing The Tires

The tires on your E-Maxx must be glued to the rims using CA
tire glue to prevent the rims from spinning inside the tires. You
can glue the tires without removing the wheels from the truck.
For clarity, these instructions show the process with the wheels
removed.
1. Remove a wheel from the
E-Maxx using the larger
(8mm) end of the glow plug
(universal) wrench.
2. Use your thumb to push the
side of the tire away from the
rim. Place one or two drops of
CA glue into the opening and
release the tire. Capillary
action will draw the glue
around the bead of the tire.
3. Repeat step two at four or five points around the rim, until the
tire is completely secured to the rim. Turn the rim over and
repeat the process for the inside of the rim/tire. Repeat for the
other 3 wheels.
4. Reinstall the wheels, making
sure none of the axle pins
have fallen out from behind
the hex hubs.

Always wear safety
glasses to prevent
glue from splattering
into your eyes.
The acetone in
fingernail polish
remover will
remove excess glue from
your fingers.
