10 MK II Wheel Drive
Securing the wheel drive to the wheel
1. Remove the wheel from the pedestal and place it on top of the drive unit, with the front of
the wheel and drive both facing up.
2. Using the wheel drive template at the end of this booklet, select the correct set of spoke
clamp inserts for your wheel:
• measure the spoke diameter at a distance of about 135 mm (5.3 in) from the center of
the wheel
• select the appropriate set of inserts: the wheel drive is supplied with 2 sets of 3 inserts
suitable for 12 mm (
1
/
2
in) and 16 mm (
5
/
8
in) diameter spokes – each insert is marked
with its size
3. Fit the first spoke clamp:
• lubricate the spoke with washing-up liquid – so you can slide the spoke clamp along
the spoke to adjust its position
• place the insert on the spoke about 135 mm (5.3 in) from the wheel center – this dis-
tance is not critical as the wheel drive will self-center as you fit all 3 spoke clamps
• place the spoke clamp onto the insert, making sure that you have correctly located the
clamp insert in the clamp
• locate 2 of the clamp screws (M5 x 16 mm allen-head screws)
• lightly tighten the screws using the 3 mm allen key (Hex key, supplied)
4. Repeat step 3 to fit the other 2 spoke clamps. As you fit each one, adjust the position of the
wheel relative to the wheel drive so the holes in the clamp line up with the holes in the
cover. As you do this, the wheel drive will self-center on the wheel.
5. After fitting all 3 spoke clamps, fully tighten the screws.
