3.13. ASSEMBLE WHEEL HUBS AND INSTALL TIRES

For each axle extension (29961) and hub assembly (17013) pair:

1. Remove any dirt from spindle and hub.
2. Thoroughly pack wheel bearings and cups with a good grade of bearing

grease.

3. Place large bearing into hub and carefully tap in seal.
4. Slip hub onto the axle extension spindle and insert small bearing and washer.
5. Tighten slotted spindle nut until hub drags slightly. Back off nut about 1/4 turn

until hub turns freely.

6. Install

cotter pin and dust cap.

Note:

Installing tires may not leave you with enough clearance to position and attach
undercarriage once auger tube is raised. If so, install wheels after assembly is
complete.

7. Inflate tires to recommendations on tire side wall. Wheels may be mounted

on hubs at this time using 6 wheel bolts.

8. Raise the three-piece axle, fully insert the axle extension and wheel, and

secure the axle extension with an axle pin (20008) and a 7/16”-3/4”, 1/8” DIA
hairpin (19463).
