Step 1: Always wear eye protection!
Step 2: Retreat the center axle cup on the Rim Wit to prevent premature contact with the axle end.
* In most cases (9/10) the center axle cup is not needed, depending on the severity of the stuck rim.
Step 3: After removing all lug nuts from the hub assembly, place the Rim
Wit on the studs, positioning it so that the pull chains are over the rim holes.
Secure the Rim Wit by using two of the 33mm Lug Nuts.
*Finger-tighten or light torque (30-40 lbs.) is all that is necessary.
Step 4: Loosen the 33 mm drive nuts on the Rim Wit to allow for slack in your pull chains. Hook the rim on each side to the chains using the rim hooks. Tighten and remove slack in chains.
*If using, extend the center axle cup to make contact with the axle end.
Step 5: Using your tire impact wrench, alternate tightening the “Drive Nuts” until the rim is dislodged. Reverse the sequence to remove your Rim Wit.
* Note*: Do not exceed the angle of attack on the pull chains past the support angles on your Rim Wit.
* Your Rim Wit will prove to be a durable tool if used in accordance with all directions. Abuse or careless use of the tool, could result in the warping or bending of the main frame, and is not covered under warranty.
