Deck Caster Wheels Installation

1.

Remove the bolt, nut, axle spacer tube, and
spacer washers from each deck caster wheel
fork.

NOTE: Spacer washers are used only when
the optional semi-pneumatic deck wheels (8.25
x 2.75) are installed.

2.

Fit the axle spacer tube through the wheel hub,
position the spacer washer on each side of the
hub (if used), and fit the assembly into the wheel
fork.

3.

Insert the 3/8-16 x 4-1/2 in. bolt through the
wheel fork with the bolt head to the outside and
install the 3/8-16 in. Keps nut.

4.

Tighten the bolt and nut until the axle spacer
tube bottoms against the inside of the wheel
fork (will not turn) while the wheel and spacer
washers (if used) spin freely without binding.
