chemicals and should be avoided when that

is the case.

Removing road lm, contaminants and

brake dust (all of which retain moisture) is

critical to ensuring that the wheels will re-

tain their luster and quality nish for a long

period of time. Any exposure to a harsh

winter climate, particularly road salt and/

or chemicals, or submersion in salt water at

any time, requires immediate cleaning.

NEVER CLEAN WHEELS THAT ARE

HOT. Allow wheels to cool or cool them with

running water. If the wheels are too hot, sig-

nicant damage can occur to the wheels.

Wheels must always be cool or cold to the

touch prior to cleaning. Failure to allow

wheels to cool suciently can result in

damage that is not covered under warranty.

It is also important to seal the wheels

with a sealant that reduces static and resists

brake dust. Check at an automotive supply

store for an appropriate sealant.

Lug Nuts or Wheel Bolts

Loose wheel mounting nuts (lug nuts) can

cause more than just an annoying wheel

wobble—it’s possible to lose a wheel. Be-

fore each trip check for loose or missing

lug nuts/wheel bolts.

Ensure that all lug nuts are secure prior to

every time the trailer is towed. Failure to do

so can ultimately cause a wheel to disen-

gage from the hub. This can cause damage

to the trailer that may not be covered under

warranty, and serious injury or even death

to the driver, any passengers and/or other

motorists.

When tightening the

lug nuts, use the cor-

rectly sized wrench.

The wrong size can

round off the lug

nuts and render them

useless. If you lose

a lug nut, replace it

promptly. The cor-

rect size varies with different models, so

verify the proper size with an authorized

MasterCraft dealer.

Take special care to ensure that the re-

placement lug nut is the correct type. While

the threads of the lug nut may match, the

lug nut may be a size that does not hold the

wheel securely against the hub, even when

fully tightened. Be certain a replacement

lug nut is an exact match for the original.

• Ensuring that lug nuts on trailer wheels

are tight and properly torqued is an im-

portant responsibility that trailer owners

and users need to be familiar with and

practice. Inadequate and/or inappropri-

ate lug nut torque (tightness) is a major

reason that lug nuts loosen during use.

Loose lug nuts can rapidly lead to a

wheel separation from the hub, with po-

tentially serious safety consequences.

• Check the lug nut tightness often, espe-

cially during the rst few hundred miles

of the trailer’s use. You should always

check the torque at the beginning of any

long trip and every time a wheel is re-

moved.

• You must use a torque wrench to ac-

curately indicate the amount of torque

that you are applying to the lug nut.
