Adhesive correction weight positioning may not look at
-
tractive on some types of rims. In this case, the "weights
hidden behind spokes" mode can be used. This splits
any correction weight on the outer side into two parts
to be hidden behind the rim spokes. It can be used in
both ALU-S or STATIC modes.
Proceed to ALU-S or STATIC unbalance measurement
displaying by performing a standard wheel spin (see
Par. 15.3.4 or 15.3.5).
Once the unbalance values have been determined,
press OPTIONS key
; “

The machine automatically calculates weight position
in two positions hidden behind the spokes. The quan

tity of weight to be fitted behind the FIRST spoke is
shown on D2 outer display; the LED close to D2 display
show the direction the wheel shall be moved in to fit
the FIRST weight (see
Fig. 41
). Turn the wheel at the
point indicated by the LEDs, until the position has been
reached to correct the unbalance (see Par. 15.3.6).

Upon reaching the correct position, the wheel is locked
independently.
Extract the gauge rod, and fit the FIRST weight (25 g)
in the position shown by the machine, as explained in
Par. 15.3.4.
Press key
to release the wheel.
The quantity of weight to be fitted behind the SECOND
spoke is shown on outer display screen D2; the LEDs
close to the display screen D2 show the direction
wheel shall be moved in to fit the SECOND weight (see

). Turn the wheel at the point indicated by the
LEDs, until the correct position has been reached to
correct the unbalance (see Par. 15.3.6).
