Well I was pushing snow with my 190XT and the front wheel fell off. Luckily the loader was close to the ground so there wasn't additional damage. Got everything back together with new bearings, races etc but am not sure how tight to make the nut. I remember from some other equipment that the nut is torqued to 50 lbs to seat the bearings then losen the nut 1/4 or 1/2 turn. Anybody have a spec on this.

Thanks

I would snug it up to take the slop out, then back it off till it rolls free. This ain't no NASCAR wheel bearing. Bearings will run loose, but won't last long tight.

Tighten then back off so that it is free wheeling.
