Wheel installation
1. Install the wheel and the nuts.


The arrow mark on the tire must point
toward the rotating direction of the wheel.


Tapered nuts are used for both the front
and rear wheels. Install the nuts with their
tapered side towards the wheel.
2. Lower the vehicle so that the wheel is on the
ground.
3. Tighten the wheel nuts in a crisscross pattern
to the specified torque.
WARNING
Do not reverse the rims on the Rhino to widen
the track width. Installing wheels improperly
increases the risk of wheel failure and acci-
dents.
