Discus User Manual
Discus bats
Discus bats have been designed to fit easily on to the Wheel Head.
Using the Allen key provided with the wheel, raise the two bat retaining pins
approximately 3 to 5 mm by unscrewing
anticlockwise
.
Locate the bat so that the pre drilled holes fit over the bat retaining pins and push in to
place.
Ensure the bat pins are not proud of the bat’s surface.
To close the bat pins, screw c
lockwise
to just below the top surface of the wheel head
and no further
(Any further may result in the bat pin dropping in to the casing)
SAFETY NOTE
Always screw the bat pins back flush with the wheel head when you have finished using
bats and always check that the bat pins are not protruding before using the wheel as you
may injure your hands.
Plastic Master Bat with mini plywood bat
Fit the Plastic Master bat (where supplied) in a similar way and locate the mini bat in the
centre of the master bat with the lug located in the notch. To remove the mini bat from
the master bat push a tool against the lug and carefully lever out from the master bat.
Tip
Should the bat pins work loose over time apply a drop of medium thread lock (such as
Loctite 243) to the pin and screw back in to position.
Turn the pin a little after a few minutes so as to ensure that the bind is not too tight.
Note
Plywood will always have a tendency to warp slightly. Store bats on their edge upright.
