How to Fix a Noisy Cart Wheel
- 1). Inspect the wheel that is making the noise. Check for obstructions like chewing gum, string or any other item that may have worked itself around the wheel or axle.
- 2). Use a putty knife to clear any obstruction out of the way of the wheel. Pull a string until it is completely removed.
- 3). Use a stiff wired brush to reach things like gum that are hard to remove from the axle and wheel.
- 4). Mix some mild dish detergent in warm water and wash the wheel to remove any debris and dirt buildup that could be interfering with the spin of the wheel.
- 5). Allow the area to dry completely, and apply an oil based lubricant to allow the wheel to spin freely.
