Here is a checklist of how you can help us help you:

Namely, it is easier to help if you post the URL of your document along with the image, so we can copy it and make the appropriate edits.
That being said, here is an example of what you want:

First, create the cut by making a plane on the outer edge of the wheel, and cutting inward as far as desired:
Then, once we have the cut, use a circular pattern of the two faces created by the cut to create a pattern of 8 cuts around the body:

First, offset a center plane so that it is tangent to the cylinder. Then add a hole feature with the desired geometry. Lastly, create a circular pattern ofthe hole
It would benefit you to go through the tutorials. CAD is much better learned by doing
