Lug Nut Torque Requirements

It is extremely important to apply and maintain proper
wheel mounting torque on the trailer. Be sure to use only
the fasteners matched to the cone angle of the wheel.
Proper procedure for attachment of the wheels is as
follows:

1. Start all wheel lug nuts by hand.

2. Torque all lug nuts in sequence. See Figure 33. DO

NOT torque the wheel lug nuts all the way down.
Tighten each lug nut in 3 separate passes as defined
by Table 10.

3. Check to see if the lug nuts are tight after the first 10,

25 and 50 miles of driving and before each tow
thereafter.
