Um die Speichermasse auf der Antriebswelle zu justieren, müssen auf beiden Seiten des Rotors die Staubdeckel ent- fernt werden. To reposition the the matrix on the drive shaft, on both sides of the rotor the hub caps have to be removed. Der Staubdeckel besteht aus zwei Teilen und ist mit je 2 Schrauben befestigt, welche mit einem Imbusschlüssel (Größe 2,5) zu lösen sind.
