Section 7 - Lubrication and Maintenance

• Approved for the application by the tire manufacturer (including inflation pressure
and maximum tire load).
Unless specifically approved by JLG, do not replace a foam filled or ballast filled tire
assembly with a pneumatic tire. Due to size variations between tire brands, when
selecting and installing a replacement tire ensure both tires on the axle are the
same.
The rims installed have been designed for stability requirements which consist of
track width, tire pressure and load capacity. Size changes such as rim width, center
piece location, larger or smaller diameter, etc., without written factory
recommendations, may result in unsafe condition regarding stability.
E. Wheel Installation
Torque lug nuts before first use and after each wheel removal.
Note: If machine is equipped with directional tire assemblies, the wheel and tire
assemblies must be installed with the directional tread pattern “arrows” facing in the
direction of forward travel.
1. Start all nuts by hand to prevent cross threading. DO NOT use a lubricant on
threads or nuts.
2. Tighten lug nuts in an alternating pattern as indicated in figure. Torque to
220 lb-ft (300 Nm).
WARNING
TIP OVER HAZARD. Lug nuts must be installed and maintained at the proper
torque to prevent loose wheels, broken studs and possible separation of wheel
from the axle.
