Static Balancing - Corghi CompactLine Serie Manual De Uso

Some rims have spokes so wide that it is not possible to place adhesive weights next to
them; a programme which divides the counterweights into two parts has been introduced
to solve this problem.
In this case, when the centred position is reached and it becomes obvious that the balanc-
ing weight will have to be applied in line with a spoke, proceed as follows:
- remain in the centred position;
- select the
grammes" icon);
- select the spoke dimension on the displayed window using the keypad: small, medium,
large or OFF (selection deactivated);
- confirm by pressing the Enter button
- apply two new counterweights in the positions indicated.
The weight division operations can be performed on both balancing sides.
A wheel can be balanced using a single counterweight on one of its two sides or in the centre
of the well. in this case, the wheel is balanced statically. However, there is still the risk of
dynamic unbalance, which becomes more significant as the width of the wheel increases.
Proceed as follows to balance motorcycle or car wheels statically:
- perform a spin;
- at the end of the spin, select the Balancing programme icon
ENTER button until the required programme is selected;
The displayed image now shows only one position search.
- Apply the balancing weight at 6 o'clock through the LASER line or at 12 o'clock (see
Chapter "Configuring Application Position Weights Stickers") on either the outer or in-
ner side, or at the centre of the rim well, indifferently. If applied in the well, the weight
is applied on a diameter smaller than the rated diameter of the rim. A value of 2 or 3
inches less than the rated value must therefore be entered when the diameter is set in
order to obtain correct results.
Best results can be achieved if the weight is divided into two parts to be applied on the
two sides of the rim.
