1: How to fit Boat Trailer Wheel Clamp security option Supreme, also known as Australian Wheel Clamp, to a Cruise Craft Boat Trailer Wheel.

There are two methods to fit the Australian made Wheel Clamp depending on the Vehicle type. The following list is a guide to indicate whether you use fitting method one or two.

• Fitting Method One for all towable or drivable vehicles listed plus any other type of towable Vehicle not listed.
• Fitting Method Two used for the vehicles listed.

2: What is the difference between fitting method one and fitting method two.

Fitting method one is used to secure vehicles that have enough space between the top of the Wheel and the bottom of the Wheel Arch. This allows you to put your hand between to place the 10mm diameter High Tensile Chain under then over the top of the leaf springs or tubular frame as seen in the following picture.

Fitting method two is used when you cannot get your hand between the Wheel Arch and the top of the Wheel, see Vehicle list in number one above.

3: Why is Boat Trailer Wheel Clamp said to be the world's highest rated Wheel Clamp.

This Web Site explains why the Australian made Wheel Clamp is completely different compared to all other wheel clamps and has a unique method to fit it to a Wheel and the vehicles chassis.

Following explains the difference.

All other wheel clamps wrap round the width of the Tyre or a bar that goes against the wheel's rim as you can see in the following pictures.

Whereas the Australian Wheel Clamp incorporates a length of 10mm diameter High Tensile Chain that not only wraps round the width of the Tyre it also wraps round the vehicle's leaf spring securing the Wheel Clamp to the vehicle's chassis.

4: Boat Trailer Wheel Clamp security option Supreme includes Padlock Protection as the locking system.

What is Padlock Protection...

In 2003 we designed a security device to protect a Padlock being broken by the three methods used to break a Padlock, the Steel Shroud (opens in a new window) and named it Padlock Protection.

The three methods thieves use to break a Padlock are:

• Leverage Attack
• Hammer Attack
• Bolt Cutter Attack

The patented Steel Shroud protects the Padlock being broken and replacing Mild Steel Chain with 10mm diameter High Tensile Chain, that cannot be cut with a Bolt Cutter no matter how long the Bolt Cutter is.

This and other reasons is why Padlock Protection is the highest security rated locking system where a Padlock and Chain is required to STOP a thief breaking into or stealing a valuable possession.

replacing a Padlock and Mild Steel Chain.

5: If you are going to purchase Boat Trailer Wheel Clamp security option Supreme.

Wheel Clamp security option Supreme includes the patented Padlock Protection Steel Shroud locking system (opens in a new window) to secure your towable or drivable Vehicle Wheel but before it can be used as the security option Supreme the 10mm diameter High Tensile Chain may have to be cut to length for your Vehicle type.

You maybe thinking...

Why does the High Tensile Chain have to be cut by the purchaser.

Before we tell you why you need to know...

As soon as you receive your new Wheel Clamp security option Supreme even if you have to cut the Chain to length it can be used to secure your towable or drivable Vehicle before you cut the Chain to length.

How...

The security option Supreme without the patented Steel Shroud is the security option Enforcer. This ensures your towable or drivable Vehicle is protected until you have time to cut the 10mm diameter High Tensile Chain to length.

Why we, the manufacturer, cannot cut the Chain to length...

Both ends of the 10mm diameter High Tensile Chain has to go into each side of the Steel Shroud as you can see in the following picture.

We do not know...

• The diameter of your Wheel and the width of your Tyre.
• The distance from the back of the Tyre to the leaf spring or tubular frame, as used to manufacture most Caravan chassis, varies.
• The width of the leaf springs and the dimensions of the steel used to make most Caravan chassis also varies in size.

Try this before cutting the High Tensile Chain...

When you receive your Wheel Clamp security option Supreme follow the fitting instructions to measure the length of Chain you need for your towable or drivable Vehicle and if its just a few links that need cutting off try the following.

On the left or right side of the Wheel remove the Chain from the top hole in the Steel Shield and wrap the Chain over the leaf springs or other part of the chassis again then place the Chain back through the top hole in the Steel Shield, this may save you cutting the Chain to length.

Tip...

The Steel Shield does not have to be tight against the Wheel, there can be 50mm - 100mm between the face of the Wheel and the Steel Shield.

How to cut 10mm diameter High Tensile Chain...

There is only one method, a high speed angle grinder. Most people will know someone who owns a high speed angle grinder if not contact any of the following, most suburbs will have the following trades:

• Someone you know.
• Sheet metal manufacturer.
• Any other manufacture that makes metal products.
• Some plumbers and electricians.

When the 10mm diameter High Tensile Chain has been cut to length you are ready to fit the Wheel Clamp security option Supreme to your towable or drivable Vehicle.

6: How to fit the Boat Trailer Wheel Clamp security option Supreme to Cruise Craft Boat Trailer using fitting method one.

Stand the Steel Shield in front of the Wheel.

Place the Chain through the two bottom holes in the Steel Shield.

NB: Step 2 - We suggest to save you a few seconds while fitting the Australian Wheel Clamp security option Supreme place a piece of coloured tape or twist a short piece of wire, as seen in the pictures, or similar around the middle link in the length of Chain. This will enable you to quickly centralize the Chain in the centre of the Steel Shield.

Step 3

On the left side pass the Chain under then over the vehicle's leaf springs or tubular frame then through the top hole.

Step 4

Repeat the same procedure on the right side as per Step 3.

Step 5

Grip both ends of the Chain and pull to make the Chain taut.

Step 6

Locking the Australian Wheel Clamp security option Supreme with the patented Steel Shroud and customised Padlock, it will only take a few times to get the hang of it.

1st: Place both ends of the Chain in the slot on each side of the Steel Shroud.

2nd: Place the removable Shackle in the holes at the top of the Steel Shroud.

3rd: Hold the Steel Shroud in your hand and place a couple of fingers over the top of the Shackle. Look at the opposite end of the Steel Shroud to make sure the Shackle is in the centre then insert the Padlock Body in the hole at the bottom of the Steel Shroud. To lock the Padlock turn the key while pushing the Padlock into the Shackle.

Note: The padlock's Shackle only fits into the Padlock body one way, you have to remember the correct way, here's a couple of suggestions:

• The long side of the Shackle goes into the side of the Padlock where the ball bearing has been removed.
• Or the method I use is, on one edge of the Padlock body there is a pin hole, the short side of the padlock's Shackle goes in the side where this pin hole is.

Simple to fit to a Wheel.

Takes about 20 - 30 seconds.
