Wheel Assembly Instructions (QTY 4) 

The Rover 8” Pneumatic Chassis includes four (4) high-traction wheels with a grippy rubber tire, a pneumatic 
inner tube, and a strong plastic hub. The nominal diameter for this wheel is actually 7.65 inch when inflated 
normally. When assembling the tube within the two hub halves, be careful not to pinch the tube rubber between 
the plastic hub halves. If assembled with the tube pinched between the hub halves, the tube may puncture and 
leak. These wheels will be assembled together with a ½” hex hub to be driven by the output shafts of the 
previously assembled gearboxes and to ride on a chain driven shaft.
