WARNING

Check that the system which fits the weight to the rim is in optimum condition.

A weight which is not properly or correctly fitted may come off as the wheel rotates,

creating a potential danger.

Pressing the STOP key while the wheel is in motion interrupts the wheel spin before

time.

If the "RPA" (position centred) program is active, at the end of each balancing wheel

spin the machine stops the wheel in the position for application of the weight on the

inside; if this balancing weight is equal to zero, the wheel is stopped in the position for

the outside.

If the START key is pressed with the guard raised, automatic search for the second

side position begins.

This function is described in greater detail in the AUTOMATIC POSITION SEARCH

section.

A wheel can be balanced by applying a single counterweight on one of its sides or in

the centre of the well; in this case, the wheel is balanced statically. However, there is

still the risk of dynamic imbalance, which becomes more significant as the width of the

wheel increases.

- Press the

program

- press the

- set the wheel diameter value (in static mode, there is no need to enter the width and

distance values);

- spin the wheel, lowering the guard;

- wait for the wheel to stop automatically and for display of the static imbalance value

calculated;

- turn the wheel until the central element of the position indicator illuminates;

- Lock the wheel in position by pressing the STOP key, to simplify the weight

application stage which follows.

- fit the balancing weight at 12 o'clock (it makes no difference whether it is on the

inside or outside of the rim or in the centre of the well). If the weight is placed in the

centre of the well, it will be on a diameter smaller than the nominal diameter of the

rim, so during the diameter setting stage a diameter value 2 or 3 inches below the

nominal diameter will have to be entered if the wheel is to be balanced correctly.

Bear in mind that it is often possible to obtain better results if the weight is divided

into two equal parts, for placing on either side of the rim.

- Perform a wheel spin to check the precision of the balancing operation.
