4. Place the caddy assembly onto the
drum rim. Align inside edges of both
left and right caddies with the raised

Be sure that wheels spin freely, and do
not contact the caddies. If the wheels
do touch the caddies, move caddies
inward slightly.
5. Once the caddies are aligned with the
raised ribs on back of the drum, gently
tap on rear of each caddy until firmly
seated. It is recommended to tap the
center portion of each rear caddy. After
rear portions of caddies are firmly in
place, proceed to tap into place the
front portion of each caddy until fully
seated. It is recommended to tap the
center portion of the front caddies as
shown.
6. Using a rubber mallet or hammer,
gently tap the wheel caps onto each
wheel until the wheel caps are firmly
seated onto each wheel. This is
