Locking Rims
• Set the rim clamps to the proper position: retract clamps
to clamp the wheel from the inside and expand clamps
to clamp from the outside. Clamping the wheels from
the outside, set the clamps at diameter nearly equal
to the rim diameter, before placing the wheel on the
clamps. This will avoid the risk of pinching the tire.
WARNING!
TO MINIMIZE THE RISK OF SCRATCHING ALLOY RIMS,
THESE SHOULD BE CLAMPED FROM THE OUTSIDE.
• Liberally lubricate beads and rim.
• Place the wheel WITH DROP CENTER UPWARDS
(Fig. 5.1-3) on the turntable, and clamp in position.
Hold the wheel down while clamping.

CHECK THAT BOTH BEADS ARE COMPLETELY
BROKEN.

5.1.1.1 Angular tool adjustment

(Fig. 5.1-4)
The tool is adjusted at the factory with an optimal angle
for most wheels used today. However, the angle can
be optimised for wheels with a diameter that differs
considerably from the standard.
To adjust the tool angle, proceed as follows:
1 Mount the rim for which the adjustment is required.
2 Loosen the lower screw (1).
3 Adjust the tool with the screws shown (2a and
2b). Unscrew the screw 2a or 2b to rotate the tool,
respectively clockwise or counterclockwise.
4 Screw in the opposite screw to block the tool in the
desired angular position.
5 Tighten the lower screw (1) with a torque of 35 Nm.
