Important Notes
!
• Turing wheels is done at your risk. Minoura
is not liable for any damage that may be
caused by improper use of the stand.
Wrong wheel adjustment may cause poor
brake performance or spoil bike stability.
You can use FT-1 only when you accept
this caution. And Minoura will understand
you accept this caution when you start
using FT-1.
• Only use the FT-1 to true bicycle wheels
and for no other purpose.
• FT-1 will work with 9mm quick release
skewers and fixed nut axels, too.
15mm / 20mm thru axle can be used when
using optional adapters. Any other size
thru axle will not fit to FT-1.
• Both pillars are constructed to move
together. This helps to readjust the gauge
position when changing to a different hub.
This is NOT an "Auto-Centering" feature.
You must use a wheel dishing tool to
check wheel symmetry.
• When mounting a wide hub and tightening
the skewer, the wheel may not seat
correctly because the axle holders are
angled.
Push down the wheel to set it in the deep-
est position on the Axle Holder when you
tighten the quick release skewer.
• You will use only one Side Shaking Gauge
when checking the wheel. Widely open and
lock the gauge arm which you don't use.
