Short Description:  Assemble Front Wheel Assembly

Step 3: Split the U WHLNW51CCWHEEL Nose Wheel by removing the bolts holding the two wheel halves together.Per Figure 2.

Step 4: Removed the nut and washers from the valve stem of the U 5:00X5-6IT Tube and
discardws. Dusted the tube and the inside of the tire with talcum powder. The notch on the wheel half was aligned with the notch for the valve stem in the opposite wheel half. The red dot on the tire was installed next to the valve stem. Added just enough air to the tube after it was in the tire to hold its shape while fitting the wheel halves. Bolted the wheel halves together taking care that the tube was not pinched in the process.

Step 5: SLOWLY inflated the tire. Deflated it fully and re-inflated it SLOWLY a couple more times to work out any wrinkles in the tube. Inspected for a good seat around the wheel rim. The final inflation pressure was set to 22 psi.
