Wheel segments are secured to the wheel frame by a
Segment Retainer which pivots on the wheel rim and is
held in place by a Segment Retaining Catch (see Figure

removal.
1. Unlock two segment retainers (one on each side of
the selected segment opening.
2. With the embedded stiffener facing the motor
side, insert the nose of the segment between the
hub plates.
3. Holding segment by the two outer corners, press
the segment towards the center of the wheel and
inwards against the spoke flanges. If hand pressure

screw driver between the wheel rim and outer corners
of the segment and apply downward force while guiding
the segment into place.
