Hustler Sport remove front tire

[Headbo100]

How do I remove the front tire on a Hustler Sport? The wheel has a slow puncture. I have undone the nut on the shaft that holds the axle in the fork, but I can't get the bolt out to allow removing the wheel from the fork.

Any help would be appreciated.

It is probably rusted in place and need to be driven out with a punch. Then the bolt #4 and the spacer #5 replaced.

After you get it out try greasing it more often.

You'll need a bigger hammer.. Try Kroil penetrating oil, works wonders getting stuff unstuck. r

Thanks for the responses; that worked and I was able to get the wheel out.
