Truing the wheel
Position the vertical gauge plate between 1 - 3 mm away from the top of the rim and spin the
wheel (see diagram G). This will detect any flat spots in the wheel
which can then be removed.
Once any flat spots have been removed, position the two horizontal
gauge bolts between 1 - 3 mm away from each side of the rim and
spin the wheel (see diagram G). This will detect any buckles in the
wheel which can then be removed.
