Ensure that the axle is always clean
The moving parts of the axle should always be kept clean. This is not to say that due to prolonged driving, the axle cannot accommodate dust, but rather the accumulated dust and debris can affect the function of the axle.
Forced water can be used in the hose to reduce the accumulation of dirt around the shaft area.
Clean bearings
To properly clean the bearings around the trailer axle, make sure to remove the wheels from the trailer axle and then remove the hub to properly clean the bearings. You should be aware that depending on your usage of the trailer, solvent cleaning of the bearings is necessary from time to time.
When fixing the wheel hub and bearings, please ensure that they are properly lubricated to prevent damage due to motion friction.
Lubricating the axle
When performing regular maintenance, it is also necessary to lubricate the axles of the trailer. You should note that axle maintenance can ensure the durability of the trailer itself. It also helps to prevent friction around the moving parts of the trailer axle.
