ALU 4 balancing programme:
Calculates statistically the balancing weights to
be applied on the inner side and the inner part,
outer side of the rim, as illustrated by the icon.
ALU 5 balancing programme:
Calculates statistically the balancing weights to
be applied on the inner part and the outer side
of the rim, as illustrated by the icon.
- Correctly set the wheel data as described for
the Dynamic balancing program.
- Perform a spin.
- at the end of the spin, select the balancing
programme icon
knob or the ENTER button until the required
programme is selected.
- The video displays instructions for where to
position the balancing weights relating to the
selected programme: always to 12 o'clock if the
weight is a conventional spring type, whereas
for the application of the adhesive weight, use
6 o'clock if the "LASER" configuration is active
or 12 o'clock if the "H12" or CLIP configuration
is active.
- Set the wheel's rated geometric data by follow-
ing the steps described in the WHEEL DATA
ENTRY chapter. If the values of the diameter and
of the distance between the balancing planes,
recalculated on a statistical basis starting from
the rated geometric data of the wheel, exceed
the normally accepted interval stated in the
TECHNICAL DATA section, the A 5 message is
displayed.
IMPORTANT: in ALU1 and ALU2 programmes
the unbalance displayed by the machine on the
outer side refers to the adhesive weight centre
of gravity at the shaft assembly bearing flange,
see figure 25a.

- Some slight residual unbalances may remain at
the end of the test spin due to the considerable
difference in shape that may be found on rims
having the same rated dimensions. Therefore
change the value and position of the previously
applied weights based on the configuration
performed in the programme "SELECTION OF
ADHESIVE WEIGHTS APPLICATION POSITION"
until an accurate balance is obtained.
Motorcycle Wheel Balancing
Motorcycle wheels can be balanced in:
- Dynamic mode; when the wheel width is such
(over 3 inches) to generate significant unbalance
components which cannot be eliminated with
static balancing (the recommended procedure).
- Dynamic mode for alloy rims; a programme
similar to the ALU programmes for on-vehicle
wheels, featuring the possibility of dividing
the weight of one side into two parts in case
of particularly large spokes.
- Static mode; just one balancing weight, divided,
if necessary, into equal parts on the two sides;
procedure described in the STATIC BALANCING
section.
Motorcycle Dynamic
Programme
Proceed as follows to balance a motorcycle
wheel on two planes (dynamic balancing) using
clip weights:
- Fit the motorcycle wheel adapter AUMO on
the wheel balancer (A fig. 26).
• Insert the two screws provided into the holes
on the wheel contact flange.
• Tighten the screws on the adapter making
