Q&A

Question: How do I assemble this wheel/axle once I receive it?
- Installation of wheel on axle for 24-30" sizes:
  1. Slide lock collars on axle – leave loose, untightened
  2. Slide wheel on axle (to help determine orientation of the wheel – typically the measurement from the face of the spoke to the end of the hub is longer on the front of the wheel than the back)
  3. Put the washer on the axle
  4. Insert the lynch pin in the pre-drilled hole in the axle
  5. Slide the wheel up against the lynch pin & washer
  6. Slide the lock collar up to the back of the hub and tighten to keep in place so it is snug but not tight (wheel should spin freely/easily on axle)
- Installation of wheel on axle for 36" size:
  1. Slide wheel on axle (the boxing is tapered, so you should slide the larger diameter end on first)
  2. Put the washer on the axle
  3. Insert the lynch pin in the pre-drilled hole in the axle
