- Turn off the power to the trike and remove the battery.
- Remove the wheel from the trike by loosening the nuts or quick-release skewer that secure the wheel to the frame.
- Remove the locking ring or snap ring that secures the axle bearing cartridge in place. You may need to use a pair of pliers or a snap ring pliers to remove the ring.
- Pull the axle bearing cartridge out of the wheel hub.
- Clean the inside of the hub and the outside of the new bearing cartridge with a clean cloth or paper towel.
- Insert the new bearing cartridge into the hub, making sure it is seated properly.
- Install the locking ring or snap ring to secure the bearing cartridge in place.
- Reinstall the wheel onto the trike and tighten the nuts or quick-release skewer.
- Turn on the power to the trike and test the wheel to ensure it spins freely and without any wobbling.
Note: If you are not confident in performing this procedure, it is recommended to take the trike to a qualified technician or bike shop to have the bearing cartridge replaced. Don't take risks, take precautions.
