The Fanatec Wheel Hub features two hole patterns:

- 6 x 70 mm M5 (not threaded)
- 6 x 50.8 mm M5 (threaded)

NOTE: Check your wheel manufacturer's documentation for detailed information about mounting hole spacing and threads.

STEP 1

Loosen and remove the bolts and washers attaching the pre-installed QR2 Wheel-Side using the included 4 mm Allen key (b). Keep the bolts and washers for reattaching the QR2 Wheel-Side in a later step.

STEP 2

Carefully slide the QR2 off the Wheel Hub.

STEP 3

Align the Wheel Hub with the mounting holes of your wheel. Insert the included M5 x 14 mm bolts (e) and tighten them using the 4 mm Allen key (b).

NOTE: Depending on your wheel, it may be necessary to partly disassemble it and mount the bolts from the inside. The number of bolts needed may also differ. Check your wheel manufacturer's documentation for detailed information.

STEP 4

Reattach the QR2 Wheel-Side using the bolts and washers removed in Step 1.

C - STEERING WHEEL ATTACHMENT

ATTACHING THE WHEEL

Before attaching your wheel, make sure your base-side quick release is upright.
When oriented correctly, no pinhole should be positioned at the bottom of the connector.

The top of the base-side QR is more rounded than the underside. It is not possible to connect the wheel incorrectly.

To attach your wheel, slide it directly onto the Base. Do not force the connection. If it does not attach easily, check that the base-side QR is correctly aligned.

To detach the wheel, squeeze the sleeve mechanism while carefully pulling the wheel towards you.
