Install the Front Wheels

Use a knife and cut the four sides of the container. Install the

found, get another person to help lift the tractor. Be careful,
do not let the tractor fall.
1. Raise the front of the tractor. Set a support (block of
wood) under the tractor.
2. Make sure the valve stem (B) is to the outside of the
tractor. Slide the front wheel (A) on the spindle (C).
3. Fasten each front wheel with
and cotter pin (E). Bend the ends of the cotter pin apart
to keep the front wheel on the spindle.
4. After the front wheels are installed, lift the tractor from
the support. Roll the tractor off of the container.
5. If your tractor has hub caps (F), install the hub caps.
Make sure the washers hold the hub caps in place.
