Welcome to Futura Trailers
Check wheel lug nut torque to 95 ft/lb, 10, 25 and 50 miles and before each tow.
Trailer wheel lug nuts are prone to loosen after first being assembled. When towing a new trailer, or after wheels have been
remounted, check to make sure the lug nuts are tight after the first 10, 25 and 50 miles of driving and before each tow thereafter.
• Torque wheel lug nuts to 95 ft/lb in the sequence shown above.
• Repeat sequence before each trip or whenever a wheel is removed or replaced.
Check wheel bearings for heat and excessive play at 10, 25 and 50 miles.
The wheel bearing play is set at the factory, however, the wheel bearings may need resetting after towing and should be checked
regularly.
• Tow the trailer for 10 miles at highway speeds.
• Stop the vehicle and park in a safe location.
• Place your hand on each of the wheel hubs of the trailer. If a hub is too warm to comfortably hold your hand on,
the bearing is generating excessive heat and may be defective, have insufficient play or require lubrication.
• Setting wheel bearings please refer to the Service and Maintenance section of this manual.
• Check the wheel bearing for excessive heat or play again after 25 and 50 miles.!
