CLAMPING ALLOY RIMS
To clamp light alloy wheels, a set of alloy
rim clamps
(
Fig. 14
) designed specifically to
clamp these wheels without damaging them, is
available as an option.
The clamps are to be inserted (bayonet-like
mounting) into the clamp support of the turn-
table as shown in
figure 15
.
Lock the clamp by tightening the screw B, Fig.
15 by hand.
The clamps are supplied with three different
types of plastic insert (
A, Fig. 15 ) to be used
based on the thickness of the rim flange.
Clamp the rim as illustrated in fig. 16.

WARNING:
The turntable may “slip” during the vari-
ous operating phases when the rims are
clamped on the central hole (especially
with alloy wheels where the specific
clamps are used).
This problem may be avoided by fitting the RE-
TAINER PIN accessory (
Fig. 17A ) into one of the
wheel fastener holes ( see Fig. 17B ).
As the pin turns it rests against the clamp, pulling
the rim with it and preventing it from slipping.
A specific gripper for alloy wheels ( see
Fig. 18
) is also available for working with alloy
wheels.
WARNING
Never leave your work station with the
wheel clamped on the turntable and
lifted off the ground.
