EricMilfeld Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I have always used olympic spin collars to keep the Euro discs tight against the rubber spacers. This typically requires a slight tightening (spin of the collars) after each lift, unless the weight is gingerly returned to the floor. In the interest of saving time and effort I considered the idea of placing a C-clamp at the three o'clock and nine o'clock positions. I have not put it to the test as of yet but I believe it would not affect the balance of the apparatus, while serving to keep everything tight for an extended period of time. Thoughts....

I used clamps on mine as well (those ratcheting types) before Chris rounded up some spin-locks for me and I thought they worked great.

rico300zx Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Mine work fine, I use a rubber mallet to torque them down. Parris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
