Tighten the bearing slowly, until you cannot turn it with one hand. Slacken off the bearing until you find the hole for the split pin, again take it easy, it should not be more than a quarter of a turn, and make sure it is a new split pin. Also check that the wheel will now move fairly freely, and you are done.
Warning: Do not turn it up too tight, as you will destroy the bearing in no time. Do not have it too slack either as the same will happen. If in doubt get back to us.
