I usually set the wheel in place with the tractor low enough to allow you to insert a lock at 10 o'clock and 2 o'clock. once they are in, I jack up the tractor and do the bottom ones. With the wheel set back, just set them on the rail and slide them in. Bob

I lean the outer rim/(and tire) against the wall (outsside towards me) with one rail on the bottom, slide the bottom eccentric on the rail, set the center on it and install the 2 bolts holding it to the center finger tite....then slide the the 2 sides in and install the holding bolts and finish with the top. Keep the center towards the outside of the rail. Tighten all bolts and install the completed rim/(and tire) assy on the axle. Adjust the wheel width, instal the locks and tighten the eccentrics. Can be done by yourself; however a helper makes it much easier.

Are the 3 that you have installed in the Release / Loose CCW position ? 4th one should just slide along the rail and in to position. Gary
