Working With The Dt Swiss Truing Stand; Other Functions - DT SWISS TRUING Manuel D'utilisation

3. WORKING WITH THE DT SWISS TRUING STAND

INSTALLING A WHEEL
Loosening the clamping lever allows you to move the wheel supports laterally side to side.
1. Set the width of the hub approximately and place the wheel in the cut-outs on the mounting
plates.
2. Tighten the quick fastener or the hub's axle.
The wheel supports do not necessarily have to be in the center of the DT Swiss truing stand;
however this can have certain advantages when it comes to visually inspecting work steps.
3. Tighten the clamping lever.
The wheel / hub is now firmly fixed in place. Any play in the hub must be eliminated before
truing or checking the wheel.
SELECTING WORKING POINTS
The multilink arms allow you to adapt the working points to your preferences.
Loosening the central clamping grip (1) allows the truing device (2) to be moved to any position you
wish. Once the desired position has been set, the central clamping grip (1) must be re-tightened by
hand.
The working point can be finely adjusted using the knurled screw on the truing device (2).

OTHER FUNCTIONS

Thanks to the DT Swiss truing stand's excellent rigidity, it is possible to test whether the clamped
wheel has any play in it.
Thanks also to its high precision, the DT Swiss truing stand and the analogue dial gauge available
as an accessory can be used to check the radial run-out of a disc brake.
DT Swiss has foregone any complex or tedious set-up process for determining the concentricity of
the wheel. As a result, operating the DT Swiss truing stand is simple and straightforward. There
is currently no simpler, faster or more accurate way of checking the concentricity of a wheel than
a conventional wheel centring gauge which is held on both sides of the wheel. After checking with
the centring gauge, you can be assured that the wheel is centered since this system flags up even
the smallest tolerance with all common measuring methods.
