cracked, or damaged in any way, replacement is
necessary.
1. Thoroughly clean the wheels and hubs using a
pressure washer.
2. Clean the tires with soap and water.
3. Inspect each wheel for cracks, dents, or bends.
4. Inspect each tire for cuts, wear, missing lugs, and
leaks.
INSTALLING
Install each wheel on its hub. Tighten to specifications.

proper hub as noted in removing (the "rotation
arrow" (if applicable) must indicate forward direc-
tion of rotation).
CHECKING/INFLATING

sure in each tire. Adjust the air pressure as neces-
sary to meet the recommended inflation pressure.
