Wheel Truing Stand

TRUE-BASE

instructions manual

Thank you for choosing the MINOURA

TRUE-

BASE

portable wheel truing stand.

True-Base holds a bicycle wheel on top of the pillars

for helping you to maintain the wheel.

The gauges that check vertical and horizontal

movement of the wheel are intuitive and easy to use.

True-Base folds down completely for easy trans-port

and compact storage.

Please read this instructions manual carefully before

use and keep handy at all times for future references.

Important Notes

• Do NOT use True-Base for any purpose

other than instructed such as displaying

bike on it.

• Both right and left side pillars move

together for placing the wheel in the same

position whatever the hub width is, but it's

not 100% perfect so we recommend you to

use an optional wheel dishing tool together

for much more precise adjustment. We

don't guarantee any result by using this

stand.

• Axle Holder is a xed type. Depending on

the hub width, you may have to slightly

bend Axle Holder by tightening the

Components

• PILLARS

Both right and left side Pillars are connected in the

body so they will move together at the same time.

You should hold both Pillars with both hands when

opening or closing them.

• AXLE HOLDER

Be sure that Axle Holder is a xed type, not angle

adjustable.

It is crucial to set the wheel into the deepest position

of the Axle Holder by pushing down the wheel when

setting up the wheel on True-Base to get better result.

If one side has been lifted up due to bad installation,

the wheel won't become symmetrical.

either hub side will be lifted up that makes

expect correct result.

• Push down the wheel to set it in the deep-

est position on the Axle Holder when you

tighten the quick release skewer.

• T-shaped gauge for checking the prior

gauge center position doesn't come with

the kit. Purchase sseparately if necessary.

necessary for maintaining the wheel but

they are not included in this kit. Purchase

them separately at your local bike shop.
