Alternate Mounting
If the wheel has a protruding outer hub which will not permit
the use of the pressure cup, or the cup will not permit the hub
nut to engage at least four turns of the arbor, this alternate
method should be used.
1. Place the cone spring on the arbor with the large end
towards the balancer.
2. Select the cone that best fits the center hole in the wheel.
Slide the cone onto the arbor with the large end towards the
spring.
3. Lift the wheel onto the arbor and center it on the cone.
4. Use the small nylon spacer (no-mar ring) or a centering
cone to press against the outer wheel hub.
5. Spin the hub nut (without the pressure cup) onto the arbor.
Tighten securely.
Optional Combi-Adapter Mounting
Use this method for wheels with a center hole that is out of
round, or center holes that do not fit the mounting cones. This
adapter allows the mounting of 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, or 10 lug wheels by
installing 3, 4, or 5 swivel plates on the adapter plate.
1. Assemble the adapter according to the instructions pro-
vided.
2. Attach the adapter to the wheel. The lug nuts must properly
seat in the lug holes and engage at least four full threads for a
secure mounting. Use the wrench provided with the adapter,
and never use air tools or impact wrenches.
3. Lift the wheel onto the balancer and align the adapter base
plate studs with the holes in the arbor faceplate. Secure the
adapter/wheel to the faceplate using the thumb nuts. To prop-
erly center the wheel, tighten the thumb nuts in an alternating
pattern while rotating the wheel.
