• Make sure the bike tire and wheel are clean to reduce the possibility of scratching
the rim.
• Keep the wheel clamp pads clean using Isopropyl Alcohol. Do not allow any
products to be applied or transferred to the wheel clamp that could interfere with
the gripping action.
• If you run the clamp all the way open against the hard stops, the CPI will turn off
the motor before any damage can occur.
• Follow the prescribed service for the wheel clamp lubrication for frequency and
type of lube. Grease or lube the screw and slides monthly or every 500 bikes.
• Do not run into the edges of the wheel clamp pads with the bike tire.
• If the wheel clamp movement is binding for any reason, stop using the wheel clamp
and correct the problem. It is possible for the wheel clamp to bind and give a false
indication that the wheel is clamped.
• If the wheel has been clamped and the wheel clamp indicator light is on steady then
the dyno power is turned off or the E-Stop activated, the wheel clamp indicator
light will go back to the blinking state as the clamp status is unknown. Pressing the
clamp button again will secure the clamp.
• If the E-Stop circuit is open or the Emergency Stop button is pressed, the wheel
clamp will not operate.
