Description

Package contents: 2 Idler Tires

Difficulty
Easy to moderate · typically 15–40 min for a first-timer with basic tools.
Tools needed
Screwdrivers, tweezers, isopropyl alcohol
Common mistakes to avoid
- Fitting the new tire over a dirty idler wheel — clean the plastic hub thoroughly or the tire will slip on its own wheel.
- Stretching the tire more than needed to get it over the hub — roll it on progressively like a car tire.
- Not cleaning the surfaces the idler drives against (reel tables, flywheel rim).
A correctly fitted idler tire sits perfectly round with no bulges. Spin the wheel by hand and watch the edge — any wobble means it isn't seated evenly.
