wheel, and remove the hand rim.

REMOVING AND REPLACING FRONT WHEEL
DO NOT change wheel sizes. Your product is design for a specific size wheel, and your
forks will not safely accommodate larger or smaller wheels.
1 - Remove axle bolt and hardware (washer, locknut, spacer, etc).
2 - Remove old wheel.
3 - Line up new wheel to ensure that you use same fork holes as the old wheel used.
4 - Replace axle bolt and hardware (washer, locknut, spacer, etc).
5 - Rotate (or spin wheel) to ensure proper fitting and alignment. Wheel should not
wobble, grind, or catch.
BRAKES
ADJUSTING BRAKES
DO NOT operate brakes while the product is moving. DO NOT attempt to stop the
product using brakes (these brakes are NOT designed to withstand the force required).
1 - Disengage brakes.
2 - Loosen the bolt and locknut that secure the brake to the frame.
3 - Reposition the brake so that if it were engaged, it would press against the wheel and
depress it 1/8 inch.
4 - Securely tighten the bolt and locknut attaching the brake to the frame.
5 - Engage brake and test to ensure that product does not move, and wheel does not
turn, when pushed.
6 - If product moves with brake engaged, then repeat above steps and slightly increase
the amount that brake depresses wheel when engaged.
