After assembling any wheel onto the axles, make sure to check the
gap between the screw thread and the outside of the wheel (refer to
the adjacent diagram). If the gap is too big, add two or three washers
on the axle to the inside of the wheel. After tightening the nut on the
outside of the wheel, please turn the wheel with your finger to check if
the wheel can run smoothly. This is a very important step because if
the wheel can run smoothly, it is ok; but if the nut presses the wheel
and the wheel can’t run smoothly, the motor will be broken easily!
If the wheel does not run smoothly, you will need to decrease one
or two washers to make sure the wheel can run smoothly!
Note:
If the wheel nuts are loose, the wheels will not engage
the forward gear. Tighten the nut with the wrench.
