1.3.4 Setting up the assembly head
If you are predominantly processing large wheels up to 24” or small 8” wheels, it is
advisable to adapt the assembly head settings to the wheel rim diameter.
The settings for the assembly head are set out in more detail in the MAINTENANCE
subsection.
Tip and/or swivel the assembly head into the working position
and release the locking device in order to bring the assembly
head up to the rim flange by hand and put it on. In order to do
so, the guide roller (3) and/or the plastic contact strip (for light
metal wheel rims) may touch the respective wheel rim contour.
When locking the assembly head, this automatically moves away
from the wheel rim in height and distance.
The settings for the automatic distance are set out in the
“Maintenance and service work” chapter.
In order to prevent light metal wheel rims from being damaged
during assembly, it is advisable to only assemble these using a
plastic protector and/or a plastic assembly head.
