Description: |
| After removing the axle nut, slide the "jack" between the wheel spokes until the lower end is below the end of the axle. Lift the axle enough to allow the wheel to slide freely; slide the wheel off the axle spindle to clean & lubricate it, then slide the wheel back onto the axle. The drawings and specifications refer to optional axle nut wrench and adjustable end piece for the "long" arm- neither feature appears in known examples of the tool.
