6. Flip over the wheel and attach the FCG-310 onto
the opposite side of the wheel. Do not change the
Gauge Plate position yet.
At this time, if all three points (both Rim Guides
and the tip of the Gauge Plate) touch each
appropriate position at once on both side of
the wheel (see Fig. B), your wheel is properly
assembled and adjusted.
But if either one of the Rim Guides or the Gauge
Plate doesn't touch the appropriate position (see
Fig. C), your wheel needs to be adjusted further.
If the Rim Guide doesn't touch the rim, the wheel
has been moved toward opposite side.
If the Gauge Plate doesn't touch the hub even
though both Rim Guides touch the rim, your wheel
has been moved backward.
Set the wheel on the wheel truing stand to adjust. To know how to adjust the wheel, refer the instructions manual
of the truing stand.

! It is crucial to measure the wheel at several different points to get proper result.
Useful Additional Features
FCG-310 can be used on most wheels sized between 24" and 27"/700c in the standard position.
In addition, you can use it for the smaller wheel (18" or larger) and the wide (up tp 140mm) hub wheel which is used on
some DH, FR and city commuting bikes by changing the the Rim Guide position. (see Fig. D & E)

How To Fold Down FCG-310
(Fig. D)
(Fig. E)
(Fig. F)
To fold down the FCG-310, 1) loosen the Knob Bolt fully,
2) separate the Ratches as if pulling outward on each other, 3) rotate
the Gauge Plate as the hole faces outward, then 4) fold the Frame.
!
Do not tighten the Knob Bolt while the hole of the Gauge
Plate is facing inward, otherwise the Gauge Plate will be bent.
Please be sure the Gauge Plate cannot be replaced.
The hole must be outward
How To Use NW-300
Insert the wrench of the NW-300 to the nipple fully to the bottom. Do not use any incorrect (wider) size wrench. Tighten
the nipple slowly. You must stop tightening after turning 1/2 rotation at once at widest. These are for protecting the
nipple from damage. Once the nipple is damaged, you won't be able to continue any work on wheel.
!
Do not continue using the NW-300 if its jaws don't fit
your nipples. Use another nipple wrench.
