A tapered roller wheel bearing on a non-driven school bus axle is being adjusted. The general correct procedure is to:

1. Tighten the nut as tight as possible and lock it
2. Leave the bearing loose so it does not overheat
3. Torque the nut while rotating the wheel to seat the bearing, back off, then set final preload/end play per spec and secure the nut
4. Set adjustment by feel only without torque or end-play check
