the spring up and attach to the front mounting hole in the spring brack-
et with another 9/16” x 3-1/4” stainless steel hex bolt and 9/16” stain-
less steel lock nut. Tighten all axle U-bolts and spring bolts.
Brake Line Installation:
Open hardware box No. 66801 and sort. Locate the long (88”)
brake line and straighten.
Locate the five (5) line clamps and the 1/4” self tapping screws.
Form the brake line so that it can be routed down the back side of
the axle and then over to the brass block on the calipers.
spring around the bushings just installed. Note that if the axle is
positioned too low when trying to hook, the hooks will not hook
around the bushings.
Raise the front of the springs up so they align with the rear hole in
the axle rocker bogie just installed. Secure in place with 9/16” x 3-
1/4” hex bolts and lock nuts.
Install another spring bracket bushing in the front hole of the rocker
arm assembly. Secure with a 9/16” x 3-1/4” hex bolt and lock nut.
Tighten.
Hook the hook end of the springs mounted to the front axle over the
bushing just installed in the rocker arm assembly. Then swing the front of
See axle assembly drawing on page 6.
Remove one of the brass plugs from the port in the brass block on the
left brake caliper that best aligns with the routing of the line. Note also
that the bolt holding the brass block to the caliper can be loosened so
that the brass block can be rotated to better accommodate the angle
that the brake line approaches the block on the caliper. Thread the
brake line fitting into this port to hold the line in position making sure
that the line does not rub or touch the spring. Re-tighten the bolt in
the brass block if it has been loosened to rotate the block.
Route the line down the back side of the axle and secure
to the axle with the five (5) clamps and self tapping screws.
Note that the axle is pre-drilled for the mounting screws.
Route the brake line over to the brass block on the right brake caliper.
Remove both plugs on the right caliper block. Thread the other end of
the brake line into one of the ports on the brass block. Thread the 18”
brake hose male end into the other port from which the plug was re-
moved and tighten. Position the brass block so that neither the hose nor
the brake line will contact or rub the spring. Tighten all fittings.
Place the other end of the hose up through the hole pro-
vided in the brake line clip bracket. Secure in place with
the hose clip provided. Item No. 29 in Diagram F, Page 4.
Repeat this process to install the brake line to the second axle using
the component parts in hardware box 66928. Once installed, locate
the brass tee in box 66928. Thread the male port of the tee into the
female end of the brake hose installed on the front axle. Tighten.
Remove the plastic cap from the end of the frame brake line coming
out of the black plastic tube in the side frame by the axle. Uncoil the
brake line enough so that it will reach the port of the tee just threaded
into the brake hose. Thread the brake line fitting into the top port of
the tee and tighten.
Locate the 40” long brake line tube in box 66928. Thread one end
of the line into the remaining port of the tee installed in the previ-
ous step. Route the line back to the second axle. Place a coil in
the line to use up the excess line and then connect the other end
