1. Measure the Axles to determine the correct orientation for installation on the
Trailer. The longer portion of the Axle (Figure 5) should face the Front of the
Trailer.
NOTE: The Front of the Trailer has the two rectangular Bosses welded to the side of the
Trailer.
2. Turn the Main Frame upside down. Install the Axles to the Main Frame by
inserting the Axle Pivot Pins, with the Tab facing downwards, from the outside of
the Main Frame through the Axles. Align the Hole through the Tab on the Pin
with the Hole in the Main Frame and repeat for opposite side (Figure 6).
Take care not to Pinch hands or Fingers when installing the Axles and Axle Pivot Pins.
NOTE: It is easier to install the Axle Pivot Pins by first placing the Axle(s) between the
mounting plates, then picking up one end of the Axle, while allowing the other to rest on the
ground. This will take some of the weight off and allow you to align the holes much easier so
you may insert the Axle Pivot Pin(s).
