Refitting the front wheel
When all the necessary inspections have been completed, refit the wheel as follows.
Lubricate and fit the spacers (7) and (8) to the sealing rings on the sides of the wheel hub.
Fit the complete wheel between the fork legs.
Lubricate the shank and thread of the wheel shaft (6).
Take pin (6) fully home into the wheel hub.
Fit the washer (3) on the end of the wheel shaft.
Grease thread and underside of the locking nut (3) and then screw it on.
Tighten nut (4) to a torque of 63 Nm ± 5%.
Apply grease to the threads and underside of the screws (2).
Tighten the two screws (2) securing brake callipers (1).
Operate the front brake lever two or three times.
Hold the lever pulled towards the handgrip and simultaneously tighten the screws (2) to a torque of 45 Nm ± 5%.
Before tightening the screws (5), lower the bike to the ground and push up and down on the handlebar to load the suspension; so the fork legs will become properly seated onto the wheel shaft.
Tighten the screws (5) to a torque of 10 Nm ± 5%, following a 1-2-1 sequence.
