P/N 5900261 — Rev. A1 — January 2021 

Installation 

This section describes how to install the Dannmar Wheel Balancer. Perform the tasks in the order 

presented. 

Installation Safety Rules 

Pay attention at all times during installation.

 Use appropriate tools and equipment. Stay 

clear of moving parts. Keep hands and fingers away from pinch points. 

Safety is your top 

priority.

 

Use caution when unpacking the Wheel Balancing Machine from its shipping container and setting it 

up. The Wheel Balancing Machine is heavy and the weight is not evenly distributed; dropping or 
knocking over the unit may cause equipment damage and personal injury. 

 

WARNING

 

You must wear OSHA-approved (publication 3151) Personal Protective Equipment 
at all times when installing, using, maintaining, or repairing the Wheel Balancing 

Machine: leather gloves, steel-toed work boots, eye protection, back belts, and 
hearing protection 

are

 mandatory.

 

Only experienced, trained technicians may install the Wheel Balancing Machine. In 
particular, all electrical work 

must

 

be done by a 

licensed, certified 

Electrician

 

CAUTION

 

Certain parts of installing the Wheel Balancing Machine are difficult for one person. 
Dannmar strongly recommends having two or more people work together to install 

the unit. 

If an extension cord is required to power the Balancer, verify that its current rating is equal to or greater 

than that of the equipment being used. Make sure the extension cord cannot be stepped on, run over, 
or pulled out. Extension cords are also a tripping hazard, secure them appropriately. 

Plan for Electrical Work 

The Balancer comes with a power cord pre-wired for 110 VAC. Verify a 110 VAC outlet is near the 

Balancer site. 

If you plan to use 220 VAC,

 contact a licensed Electrician to verify that the facility electrical system is 

up to local electrical code and that the 220 VAC can be provided at the planned Balancer site. The 

electrician will also provide guidance on using a plug or connecting directly to the facility electrical 

system through a circuit breaker. 

 

WARNING

 

All electrical work, such as attaching a plug to the power cord or connecting directly to 
the facility power system must be completed by a 

licensed, certified Electrician 

in accordance with all applicable local electrical codes.

 Refer to

 

Connecting to Power

 

for instructions.
