UNBALANCE OPTIMISATION
This operation is performed to reduce the static unba-
lance of the wheel.
It is suitable for static unbalance values in excess of 30
grams.
a. If no unbalance was measured before, START appears
on the display. Close the guard (and press the button
if start from the guard is disabled, see
MENU
)
to perform a spin
b. Make a reference mark on the flange and the rim (using
a piece of chalk, for example).
With the aid of a tyre remover, turn the tyre on the rim
by 180°.
Refit the wheel in such a way that the reference marks
on the rim and the flange coincid
e.
Close the guard (and press the button
if start
from the guard is disabled, see
MENU
) to perform a
spin
c. RH display: percentage reduction value
LH display: actual static unbalance value which can be
reduced by rotation
d. Mark the two positions of the rim and tyre, and turn the
tyre on the rim until the positions coincide to achieve
the optimisation shown on the display
When optimisation is complete, perform a new spin or press
the button
to return to the measurement screen.
6.3
SELF-DIAGNOSTICS
The machine can perform self-diagnostics to check the
LED’s on the control panel and make sure the encoder
reads correctly.
To perform this operation, view the SETUP menu.
In the self-diagnostics sequence, all the LED’s on the pa-
nel light up for a few seconds in order to check operation.
When the LED’s go out, the machine automatically moves
on to the encoder reading phase. When the wheel is turned
manually (forwards and backwards), the display shows its
exact position. The value lies between 0 (zero) and 255.
(Consult the extraordinary maintenance manual or
contact Technical Service).
6.4
CALIBRATION
To calibrate the machine, proceed as follows:
▪
Fit an average size wheel with a metal rim on the shaft.
Example: 6” x 15” (± 1”).
▪
Set the wheel measurements as described in paragraph
USE OF THE WHEEL BALANCER.
