Road Simulator
Installation
Installing the lug bolts directly against the transducer face, without the anti-
galling compound and the shim washers, can cause galling of the
transducer face.
Galling of the transducer face can result in uneven torquing (and possible
over-torquing) of the lug bolts.
To prevent galling, always use the shim washers provided. Always lubricate the
bolts and shim washers as described below.
Lubricate the lug bolt threads, under the bolt head, and both faces of the
shim washers with the Nikal based anti-galling compound.
Tighten the lug nuts in three increments up to the specified torque, in the
sequence shown in the next figure to the torque rating recommended for the
wheel.
Important
Do not exceed maximum specified lug-nut torque.
