Installation
Attaching SWIFT Components to the Fixturing
Note Install the transducer in so that the orientation labeling is consistent with
the reference orientation. In most cases, this means installing it so the
labels are upright. If an additional angle correction is required after
installation, you will need to measure the angle from zero, and then enter
a new offset value for the AngleOffset in the TI calibration file (see
earlier instructions
, “Edit the Calibration File,” on page 66).

Fasteners
Material required:
• Molykote g-n paste (MTS part number 011-010-217).
• Nikal based anti-galling compound (MTS part number 011-354-902)
Procedure
1. Clean all surfaces with a mild detergent such as dish soap. It is critical that
all surfaces be free of stones, burrs, and grease.
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.
2. Ensure the pilot surface of the hub adapter spacer is facing the transducer.
Lubricate the threads and under the head of each fastener with Molykote g-n
paste and torque to 32.5 N·m (24 lbf-ft). They will be tightened to final
torque later.

* The length of these fasteners is dependant on the thickness of the rim
flange. The fastener length should ensure a minimum thread
engagement of 30 mm (1.18 in).

† The length of these fasteners is dependant on the thickness of the rim
flange. The fastener length should ensure a minimum thread
engagement of 18 mm (0.71 in).

‡ These fasteners secure the spindle adapter spacer to the transducer.
The length of these fasteners is dependant on the thickness of the
spindle adapter spacer which is a function of the customer wheel
geometry. The fastener length should ensure a minimum thread
engagement of 18 mm (0.71 in).
