5.4 Clamping / unclamping the
wheel
The electric controller is so designed that after
turning on the mains switch the clamping jaws
remain in their instantaneous position and any
change must be effected intentionally by actuating
the pedal.
5.4.1
Clamping the wheel
CAUTION:
HAND CRUSHING HAZARD. COMPLY
WITH THE MOVEMENTS INDICATED.
Note
:
Before clamping the wheel make sure the contact
surfaces on wheel adaptor and rim are free from
dirt and grease.
•
Move the clamping jaws to
unclamped
position
(
Fig. 5-5
).
•
Slide the centring cone or centring ring (chosen
function of centre bore diameter of the wheel) on
the main shaft (

).
•
Bring the wheel near to the centring cone or ring.

Notes
If the pedal is actuated once again during the clamping
process, clamping is interrupted and the clamping jaws
return to unclamped position. Clamping can also be
interrupted by operation of the STOP or the ESC key.
Spin can be started only when the wheel is clamped
and the wheel guard closed.
