nice trike and welcome! the 200es was one of the best utility trikes. the front wheel should come off fairly easy. remove the 4 bolts on the left side by the bolt head then just turn the big bolt and it should unscrew fairly easy to. then the wheel is off. BUT the o-ring maybe your problem i wouldnt tube it unless absolutley nesessary

Hey Mate...

Real nice looking big red ya got there,, a real minter.
From personal experience, those front axles sometimes take a bit of work to remove..

Good luck.
