Combination / Bolt Plate Adapters

Stud piloted wheels must be mounted using the

combination adapter or a bolt plate adapter. Stud piloted

wheels can be identified as those with stud hole

countersinks.

For the combination adapter, clean the balancer flange

and attach the adapter flange plate. Select the relevant

clamping plate (4 or 5 star), and position the studs on

the correct P.C.D. With the tire on the ground, slide the

balancer so that the spindle extends through the wheel

center hole. Mount the clamping plate on the protruding

spindle and slide into the wheel stud holes. Raise or

lower the spindle with the lift handle as needed for

optimum alignment. Thread the Spindle Nut onto the

spindle and hand tighten. Raise the wheel slightly so

that it clears the ground and securely tighten the Spindle

Nut.

If using a bolt plate adapter, first install spacer ring

(P/N 1489) to the balancer flange. Select the correct

bolt plate, and facing outwards, slide onto the stub shaft,

ensuring that the location pins engage in the relevant

holes. Secure the adapter in place by tightening the

spindle nut to approximately 50 Nm (184Ibsin-

203Ibsin). With the tire on the ground, slide the balancer

so that the spindle extends through the wheel center

hole, and the studs align in the stud holes. This may

require slight height adjustments using the lift handle.

Hand tighten the wheel nuts until snug, then using a

crisscross sequence tighten securely to a torque of

approximately 50Nm (184Ibsin-203Ibsin).
