20.Tighten locknuts (1) to 85 lb-ft (115 Nm) in tightening sequence shown.21.Tighten locknuts (1) to 125 lb-ft (170 Nm) in tightening sequence shown.22.Check wheel assembly for gaps at each stud (2). Use a 0.0015 in. (0.038 mm) thickness gauge todetect gaps. If gaps are detected, disassemble and reassemble wheel assembly and recheck for gaps.If gaps are still detected, replace outer rim half (3).WARNING Never inflate a wheel assembly without having checked wheellocknut torques to ensure the wheel locknuts are tightened tospecifications. An assembly with improperly tightened locknuts couldseparate under pressure, resulting in serious injury or death. Always use a tire inflation cage for inflation purposes. Stand onone side of the cage, during inflation, never directly in front. Keephands out of the cage during inflation. Inflate assembly torecommended pressure, using a clip-on air chuck. Do not exceed50 psi (345 kPa) cold inflation pressure. Failure to follow theseinstructions may result in serious injury or death.23.Place assembly in safety cage and inflate front and rear tires to recommended tire pressure(TM 9-2320-280-10).24.Check for leaks around rim edges (4), insert (6), and valve bore (5) with soapy solution.TM 9-2320-280-20-28-24Change 28-5.
