Attach the remaining wheels by first tightening the nut on the wheel then loosening it a ¼ -1/3 a turn.
Mount with a nut on each side of the frame. When the two nuts on each wheel are tightened, check to
see that the wheel and outside nut has a small gap to allow for easy rolling. See Figure 7.

can roll easily. Leave a small gap so the wheel can turn freely. Mount the remaining wheels shown in
