Side Play on Two Bearing Style Wheels

Identify the wheel assembly before choosing spacers or tightening hardware. This guide concerns the two-bearing style; replacement and three-bearing assemblies can differ.

Check your supplied assembly

Use the spacers and hardware specified for that wheel and mounting arrangement. The illustrated two-bearing style uses nylon washers. Do not transfer this arrangement to a three-bearing replacement without checking its instructions.

With power isolated and the belt removed, verify the wheel turns freely as described by its assembly instructions. Do not overtighten or keep running a binding wheel.

If the supplied hardware differs from the illustration or the wheel does not turn correctly, send photos to support@diktatorgrinder.com before use. See Three Bearing Style Wheels.
