Burley Flatbed Owner's Instruction and Safety Manual
IV.  Attaching the Wheels and Tongue
First, verify that the tires are infl ated to 30–35 P.S.I. Next, tip the trailer frame 
on its back end. If you are work ing on a rough or dirty sur face, lay down a 
cloth or oth er pro tec tive bar ri er to avoid damage to your trailer. Move the 
quick-release lever to the unlocked po si tion and place the wheels into the 
drop outs, making cer tain that the axles go all the way into the slots.
IMPORTANT: Wheels are dished off-center and must be in stalled 
so that tires are offset away from side rails, closest to outer frame. 
Dished wheels are a unique feature from Burley; they create a 
wider track, and thus a more stable trailer.
Once the wheels are ful ly seated in the dropout slots, the quick-release lever 
should be positioned so that it operates in the fore and aft direction. The 
lever is marked for open or closed po si tions. Tighten the right-hand wheel by 
moving the lever from the front (open) to the rear (closed) position. Tighten 
the left-hand wheel by moving the lever from the rear (open) to the front 
(closed) position. Use the thumb nut to adjust for correct spacing of the 
quick-release lever.
When properly ad just ed, you will feel re sis tance halfway through tight en ing 
the lever (when the lever is pointing straight out away from the trailer). If you 
are unfamiliar with the use of quick-release levers, contact your Burley dealer 
for a demonstration.
The quick-release lever 
op er ates in fore-aft di rec tion 
(with lever below the axle).
