Note

Use care when installing the slip-ring bracket. The circular connectors
are keyed. The slip-ring bracket should be fitted on straight (without
bending or angling it) to make sure it engages both connectors
simultaneously and evenly.

F.

Lubricate the threads and under the bolt heads of the eight
M5 X 0.8 mm bolts with Molykote g-n paste. Insert them through the
mounting holes in the slip-ring bracket and thread them into the
transducer. Torque them to 6.8 N·m (5 lbf·ft).

8. Secure the cable along the restraint tube, as necessary, to prevent it from

rubbing against the tire.

9. Secure the cable along the remainder of its length so that it will not become

damaged during data collection. (For example, tape it to the fender or
frame.)

Important

Be sure to leave enough slack in the cable to allow for the full
range of wheel travel so the cable does not become stretched or
damaged during testing.
