FRONT WHEEL TOE-IN/CAMBER
Your new tractor front wheel toe-in and cam-
ber is set at the factory and is normal. The
frontwheel toe-in and camber are not adjust-
able. If damage has occurred to affect the
factory set front wheel toe-in or camber, con-
tact a Sears or other qualified service center.
TO REMOVE WHEEL FOR REPAIRS
1. Block up axle securely.
2. Remove axle cover, retaining ring and
washers to allow wheel removal (rear
wheels have a square key - Do not lose).
3. Repair tire and reassemble.
NOTE: On rearwheels only: align grooves in
rear wheel hub and axle. Insert square key.
4. Replace washers and snap retaining
ring securely in axle groove.
5. Replace axle cover.
NOTE: To seal tire punctures and prevent
flat tires due to slow leaks, purchase and
use tire sealant from Sears. Tire sealant
also prevents tire dry rot and corrosion.
