Combination / Bolt Plate Adapters
Stud piloted wheels must be mounted using the
combination adapter or a bolt plate adapter. Stud piloted
wheels can be identified as those with stud hole
countersinks.
For the combination adapter, clean the balancer flange
and attach the adapter flange plate. Select the relevant
clamping plate (4 or 5 star), and position the studs on
the correct P.C.D. With the tire on the ground, slide the
balancer so that the spindle extends through the wheel
center hole. Mount the clamping plate on the protruding
spindle and slide into the wheel stud holes. Raise or
lower the spindle with the lift handle as needed for
optimum alignment. Thread the Spindle Nut onto the
spindle and hand tighten. Raise the wheel slightly so
that it clears the ground and securely tighten the Spindle
Nut.
If using a bolt plate adapter, first install spacer ring
(P/N 1489) to the balancer flange. Select the correct
bolt plate, and facing outwards, slide onto the stub shaft,
ensuring that the location pins engage in the relevant
holes. Secure the adapter in place by tightening the
spindle nut to approximately 50 Nm (184Ibsin-
203Ibsin). With the tire on the ground, slide the balancer
so that the spindle extends through the wheel center
hole, and the studs align in the stud holes. This may
require slight height adjustments using the lift handle.
Hand tighten the wheel nuts until snug, then using a
crisscross sequence tighten securely to a torque of
approximately 50Nm (184Ibsin-203Ibsin).
