5.2.2 Motor-car wheel mounting
Before balancing, clean the wheel to be balanced, and remove all weights, set
previously. Mount the wheel on the shaft in accordance with figures 5.3 depending on the wheel
rim design.
а – cone from inside
b – cone from inside with shaft spacer
c - cone from outside
d - JEEP set
e – flange plate setting
f – daps for adaptors fixing
Figure 5.3 – Wheel mounting
It is recommended to mount the wheel with cone outside, Figure 5.3b in case of correct
construction of the wheel and quality of the outer margin of the opening. In this case wheel
centering is more correct and shaft and nut thread wear is much less.
Wheel mounting with shaft spacer delivered on request (Figure 5.3b) is recommended
when the cone is mounted from inside, if the cone is set deeply in the wheel opening and
insufficiently compresses the spindle spring while tightening up the wheel nut. The stronger the
spring is compressed; the better is the wheel centering.
Wheel mounting on the flange plate adapter delivered on request (Figure 5.3e) imitates the
wheel fastening on the car hub and allows balancing the wheel more precisely. Initially, it’s
necessary to fasten the flange on the wheel, and then mount the wheel with the flange on the
machine spindle.
