CLOSING THE WHEEL CLAMP
Do not run into the edges of the wheel clamp pads with the bike tire. Make
sure the wheel clamp is sufficiently open before loading the motorcycle.
1 Once the bike's front tire is fully seated in the clamp, press and hold the close
button (left hand yellow square button).
As you hold the button, the wheel clamp mechanism will close on the bike’s wheel
and tire. The wheel clamp status light will blink as the clamp is closing.
For proper and safe operation, the wheel clamp must grip the wheel as
well as the tire. If the front tire is too wide to allow the clamp pads to grip
the wheel, you must use the wheel strap.
2 Continue to hold the button down as the clamp applies pressure to the wheel and
tire. During this process, the CPI is monitoring the current that is going to the
wheel clamp.
When the wheel clamp has reached sufficient clamping force to secure the bike,
the current drive to the wheel clamp is cut and the wheel clamp indicator light will
turn on steady indicating that the wheel is secured.
Do not operate the dyno if the wheel clamp indicator light is not on steady.
3 Pull back on the bike to verify the bike is secured.
4 Adjust the carriage to align the rear bike tire on the dyno drum.
5 Secure the bike with the tie-down straps.
Never perform a dyno run if the tie-down straps are not in place or they
are damaged.
OPENING THE WHEEL CLAMP
6 Press and hold the right hand yellow square button first, then press the left hand
yellow button. The wheel clamp will start opening.
The status indicator light will be blinking to indicate the wheel is not secured and
a dyno run should not be attempted.
7 Continue to open the clamp far enough to allow the next bike to be loaded easily.
