SWIFT 40 Sensors Installing the Transducer 95
Do not allow the SWIFT assembly to bump into any hard surfaces while you
are driving the vehicle.
Bumping the SWIFT assembly into hard surfaces such as garage doors,
ramps and railings will damage the anti-rotate device, cable, slip ring, slip
ring bracket (spider), and transducer.
The SWIFT assembly will protrude approximately four inches (102 mm) from the
side of the vehicle. Remember to allow extra space on each side of the test
vehicle as you enter and exit areas with possible hazards.
Do not drive through tall grass and brush.
Driving through tall grass and brush can damage the cable and tear off the
slip ring.
Avoid areas of the test track with tall grass and brush.
Do not use the SWIFT sensor on public roads.
Public use or use on public roads could endanger the public.
Use the SWIFT sensor only on closed courses where the loads and load cycles
are recorded and managed within the prescribed limits. Only experienced test
vehicle drivers should operate a vehicle with the SWIFT sensor attached
Do not use the SWIFT sensor after excessive loading or load cycles.
The SWIFT sensor has a limited load life. Excessive loading or load cycles
could cause a fracture of the transducer, wheel rim, hub adapter, or
fasteners and can result in injury or death.
Always be aware of the maximum full scale loads appropriate for your transducer.
Upon approaching a prescribed limit, return the transducer with the recorded load
cycles to MTS for physical inspection and analysis of the load cycle history
