Attaching SWIFT Components to the Wheel Assembly

Procedure

1. Remove the current wheel from the test vehicle.

2. Clean all surfaces of the vehicle tire(s) and the modified rim(s). It is critical

that all surfaces be free of stones, burrs, and grease. Use a mild detergent
such as dish soap.

Important

It is imperative that the mounting surfaces of the transducer be
protected from getting scratched. Any wheel components and work
surfaces that might come in contact with the transducer must be
clean, smooth, and free of debris

Mount the tire(s) on the modified rim(s).

3. Wipe the unpainted mating surfaces of the modified rim and the transducer

with a clean dry cloth.

4. Attach the transducer to the modified wheel rim. Hand tighten the bolts.

If environmental conditions warrant, coat each fastener with Birchwood
Casey Sheath RB1 rust preventative (or equivalent).

Lubricate the threads and under the heads of all fasteners, using Molykote
g-n paste.
