Input of rim data for ALUS

 

i

The type of input for tire data depends on the choice 
of balancing program. To balance a wheel success-
fully, please key in the following parameters.

 

R

Rim distance: Distance between wheel and machine 
body.

 

R

Rim diameter: Nominal diameter of rim.

 

R

Rim width: The distance between inner and outer 
balancing points.

 

!

The balancing point depends on the choice of bal-
ancing program.

Automatic entry in ALUS balancing mode

1. 

Pull the rim-distance gage to inside of first adhesive 
balance weight position and wait for warning tone to 
confirm.

2. 

Pull in rim-distance gage to second inner adhesive 
balance weight position and hold it there. After the 
warning tone, return rim-distance gage to its starting 
position.

i

After completing the process described above, the 
ALUS balancing mode is selected automatically.

 

i

The ALUS balancing mode can also be selected 
using the ALU key.

8.  Balancing the wheel

WARNING – Incorrectly balanced wheels!

Risk of injury due to change in handling charac-
teristics of vehicle.

 

MT 601 D must stand on a flat surface and 
must be secured. 

 

Specified flange must be mounted on a 
clean and grease-free flange shaft.

 

Use the specified accessories (cone, spac-
er rings).

 

Rim must contact flange accurately, re-
move any dirt.

 

Perform a reference measurement after 
attaching balance weights.

8.1 

Occupied area

CAUTION – Danger of injury if the wheel is 
turning!

Danger of crushing of limbs when wheel is 
turning for persons in the restricted area.

 

When the wheel is turning the operator 
must stay in the work area.

 

There must be no persons in the restricted 
area when the wheel is turning.

1 Area which can be occupied during the measurement

2 Area which must not be occupied during measurement
