WHEELS, BRAKES, AND HUBS | 128 |
6. Occasionally the wheel will not turn freely with
the axle nut or nuts tightened snugly. This is usually caused by
prior over tightening of the axle nuts which results in a slight collapse
of the spacer tubes mentioned in Step 5 above. Replacement of the
spacer tubes will cure the problem.
7. Oil the felt washer which fits over the axle before reassembly (Number 943362 on the exploded drawing, Figure 1). 8. Bearings may be installed with either side facing in unless one side
is shielded. The shielded side faces out.

ADJUSTING SPOKES
1. Spokes must be kept tight at all times. Exercise care when tightening to keep them even and the wheel in alignment. 2. The wheel may be trued as shown in Figure 9 by tightening and loosening
spokes on opposite sides of the hub to obtain an aligned wheel.
