Service manuals

Note: Review the instructions carefully and only perform service procedures if you feel comfortable performing them. Your reseller will always help if necessary.

Quick release slipping

Problem: Wheel/quick release is slipping and center point is changing. Cause: The conical shaft adapter is slipping. This affected many of the very first produced Simucube 2 units in May 2019.

Device stuck at startup

Problem: Device stuck in "Waiting for drive to get ready" and does not start correctly. The E-stop button status follows the real e-stop button. Possible cause: Internal cable for the power button is placed in a bad/sensitive location inside the device. Note: This service instruction is only applicable to Simucube 2 Sport and Pro R1 units (Pro with 2 power supplies) that were produced before August 2020. R1 units have a rocker switch near the one of the rear corners as a power switch, where as R2 units have a on/off toggle switch near the center of the back plate.

Antenna connector / cable issues

Problem: The external antenna connector is loose. Cause: Loose antenna connector. Note: Do not spin the antenna connector to not cause it to wind up and break.


Problem: Spinning antenna connector has caused the internal antenna cable to break. Solution: Replace the antenna connector&cable assembly. Contact your reseller for spare parts.
