ConMet Introduces Interactive Hub Training CD-ROM
Consolidated Metco Inc. (ConMet) has introduced an interactive PreSet hub training CD-ROM designed for service technicians. “This CD-ROM allows technicians to become familiar with the proper service procedures for our industry standard PreSet wheel hub technology

The technician can complete the hub training on their schedule, at their location with virtually the same content provided by our regional service managers in a more formal on-site training session,” said Larry Sanford, national sales manager for ConMet. “It offers the greatest flexibility to the director of maintenance, who is constantly trying to keep his technicians up to date with the latest service information without taking them off the shop floor for extended periods of time,”
The new training CD-ROM instructs technicians on the proper identification, removal, servicing and reinstallation of ConMet’s PreSet hub assemblies. Technicians answer questions at the end of each chapter and are notified of their overall score. After successfully completing the training session and correctly answering the questions, the technician is able to print out a customized PreSet hub training “Certification of Achievement.”
The 45-minute training session uses realistic animation to illustrate and explain detailed instructions on such subjects as:
• Inspection and preventative maintenance
• Lubricant requirements
• Hub removal and disassembly
• Functional checks
• End play measurement
• Inspection, repair and replacement of hub and hub components
• Hub pilot vs. ball seat wheel mounting systems
