7. Attaching the WheelsUpdated 5 months ago

Now the axle and motor are attached it is relatively simple to attach the wheels to the rear axle. Remember that there is a left and right wheel (or more precisely tyre). You can tell which side the wheel is on by looking for the small arrow labelled 'Traction' on the tyre. The arrow should point in the direction the wheel will turn when the tricycle is moving forward. For instance the below wheel should be put on the left hand side of the tricycle (looking down on the tricycle from above).

It can be helpful to use a brick or other item to hold the axle up (so you are not supporting its weight when attaching it to the wheel) but it is not required. Each wheel is attached using four of the ultrawide screws.
