Importance of bolts

Bolts provide exceptional clamp force at the transducer to rim/spindle interface.

Bolts on the inner hub secure the hub adapter to the SWIFT sensor.

Bolts on the outer ring secure the SWIFT sensor to the wheel rim (or road
simulator spindle adapter).

Note

Make sure all bolts are in place and fully torqued during all tests.
Correct use of bolts reduces the safety hazard and ensures optimal
transducer performance.

Before you begin

Observe the following safety conditions while you are attaching the SWIFT
sensor and components to the vehicle.

Do not pressure-wash the transducer or clean it with solvents that would
degrade its silastic seal.

Pressure-washing the transducer or cleaning it with certain solvents can
damage it or degrade its silastic seal.

Avoid pressure-washing the transducer. Use only solvents that will not degrade
the silastic seal.
