TC3500 Operation Instructions 2. Basic Procedures • 11
Verify that the wheel has been properly clamped and centered.
NOTE: On conical shaped rims, always clamp the rim at a position
parallel to the feet to prevent slippage. If the rim clamping
area is oily or wet, clean the backside of the rim or install the
steel clamping jaws, RP6-2035, on the rubber pads to
increase rim gripping ability or use the wheel securing
device. Refer to “Installation of Wheel Securing Device,”
page 11 or to “Installation of Steel Jaws,” page 12.
Installation of Optional Wheel Securing Device
The wheel securing device, RP6-1485, may be used if clamping conical internal rim
shapes, wet or oily rims, run-flat or stiff sidewall tires. The primary purpose of this
device is to prevent the rim from popping up during clamping. It is not to be used to
hold the wheel during bead loosening procedures.
Position the wheel securing device through the center hole of the rim until it has been
inserted into the wheel centering support.
Insert the locking pin of wheel securing device into the center support nut by rotating
clockwise.
