threaded clamp nut (13) on spindle.
Figure H - If the wheel you are installing
is more than 1/8 inch (3mm) thick,
place the threaded clamp nut on the
spindle so that the raised section (pilot)
fits into the center of the wheel.
Figure I - If the wheel you are installing
is 1/8 inch (3mm) thick or less, place
the threaded clamp nut on the spindle
so that the raised section (pilot) is not
against the wheel.

NOTE
:
If the wheel spins after the

the orientation of the threaded clamp nut.
If a thin wheel is installed with the pilot on
the clamp nut against the wheel, it will spin
because the height of the pilot prevents the
clamp nut from holding the wheel.
