its actually called a castle nut, it only works on the right type of bolt, once its tightened on just simply push the pin(it should come with a pin)through the nut and bolt and it locks in place.

A lock washer overlaps itself when it is new so that when you tighten the nut down the pressure causes it to flatten out and in turn put pressure against the nut and whatever it is against. The pressure plus the gap in the washer helps prevent the nut from turning.
