Safety Information
Always prioritize safety when working with machinery and replacement parts. Read and understand all instructions before proceeding. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), such as gloves and eye protection. Ensure the equipment is turned off, cooled down, and disengaged from any power source before beginning installation or maintenance.
Setup and Installation
This section outlines the general steps for replacing a wheel and tire assembly on compatible Exmark equipment. Specific procedures may vary by model; refer to your equipment's primary service manual for detailed instructions.
Tools Required:
- Wrench set (appropriate sizes for axle nut)
- Jack and jack stands (for safely lifting equipment)
- Wheel chocks
- Wire brush (for cleaning axle)
- Grease (for axle lubrication)
Installation Steps:
- Prepare the Equipment: Park the equipment on a flat, stable surface. Engage the parking brake. Turn off the engine and remove the ignition key or disconnect the spark plug wire to prevent accidental starting.
- Secure the Equipment: Place wheel chocks on the wheels that will remain on the ground to prevent movement.
- Lift the Equipment: Using a suitable jack, carefully lift the side of the equipment where the wheel is to be replaced until the wheel is off the ground. Support the equipment securely with jack stands. Never work under equipment supported only by a jack.
- Remove the Old Wheel: Locate and remove the axle nut and any washers or retaining clips. Carefully slide the old wheel and tire assembly off the axle.
- Inspect and Clean Axle: Inspect the axle for any damage or wear. Clean any rust or debris from the axle using a wire brush. Apply a thin layer of appropriate grease to the axle to facilitate installation and prevent corrosion.
- Install the New Wheel: Slide the new Exmark 109-9126 Wheel and Tire assembly onto the axle, ensuring it seats properly. Reinstall any washers or retaining clips, and then thread on the axle nut.
- Tighten Axle Nut: Tighten the axle nut to the manufacturer's specified torque. Refer to your equipment's service manual for the correct torque specifications.
- Lower the Equipment: Carefully remove the jack stands and lower the equipment to the ground. Remove the jack and wheel chocks.
- Final Check: Verify that the new wheel is securely attached and spins freely.

Operating Considerations
While the wheel and tire assembly itself does not have operational controls, its proper function is crucial for the safe and efficient operation of your Exmark equipment. Ensure the wheel is securely mounted before each use. The solid design of this tire eliminates the need for air pressure checks, providing consistent performance.
Maintenance
Regular inspection and basic maintenance will extend the life of your Exmark 109-9126 Wheel and Tire.
Routine Checks:
- Visual Inspection: Before each use, visually inspect the tire for any signs of damage, cracks, or excessive wear. Check the wheel hub for bends or cracks.
- Mounting Security: Periodically check the axle nut for tightness. If it appears loose, tighten it to the specified torque.
- Cleanliness: Keep the wheel and tire free of excessive dirt, grass clippings, and debris. This prevents buildup that could affect balance or cause premature wear.
- Axle Lubrication: Depending on usage and environmental conditions, the axle may require periodic lubrication. Consult your equipment's service manual for recommended lubrication intervals and types of grease.
