how do you put the wheels on

The other comment is incorrect, it does come mostly assembled, but the wheels are not assembled. They come in a separate bag and you have to push them on - which is also why they pop off so easily when you're using the cart.

I put the wheels on using a rubber mallet. I didn't bother to take them off again. The children just use the bloks as is.

Yes, you do. The wheels are the most complicated, but the rest is pretty simple. It took me about 3 hours total, and I don't do assembly well.

I'm not able to help, I put this together for my granddaughter for Christmas last year and it's been at her house so I can't even look at it. If I remember correctly there were some kind of spacers that went on before/after the wheel itself and it was a little difficult to get them on. Sorry I can't help.

You have to unfold the wheel...you have it in the folded position. Just grab it and pull it forward.

I drilled holes and put 1" wheels on 4 of these. 1 tall and 3 shorter ones. Worked great. Drill the holes and use short screws and a locking washer.

Yes it is very hard to get the wheels on. What you have to do press really hard and move the wheel right to left at the same time while you're pushing it in. Cnce there are in you ain't getting them out. Hope it works out for you.

Hi Roberta, As I recall, you kind of put them over the end of the axel (the long stick), and just push. They'll click in. The stand is already installed - it just folds up and down.

Get a deck of cards and lay them horizontal with the shape of the tire/rims.Or use painters tape and newspaper and go around in the edge of the wheel.

You just need to attach the wheels and handles. It's been a few years, but don't remember any problems. The generator is a beast and is very heavy, so it will require a floor Jack or two people to attach the wheels.

Insert the axle from the outside. Hold a hammer or solid object on the end. Place the metal cap on the axle and strike with a hammer until solidly in place.

Make sure the wheels are snapped on...I did this also, but if you give the wheels a solid push, a very definite click sounds and the wheels do not come off. Press hard to be sure they are clicked on, not just put on.

Position lettered parts according to instructions. Also, when installing wheels, press down on bars to snap into place firmly.

You have to "slide" it in from the side, I think. Worth a try. Or maybe have one person hold one side down while another person pushes the axle down with foot (while wearing a shoe!) Try both suggestions. It's been a while since I put ours together. We have so many of these kids things, it hard to remember how they were all put together. I totally understand your frustration!

No wheels are pretty easy to put on, this is just deck, trucks are needed to put on wheels and put on them on the deck.

There is a black button on the side at level of the top of the wheels. Hit it and pull or push the skate longer or shorter.

Good question...the directions clearly were written by someone for whom English is not their natural language! It's been a while since I put this together but as best I can recall you really have to use some strength to hold the wheels, nuts and springs in place and then bend the locking thing to hold it in place.
