5. Use of the wheel balancer
The monitor displays a great deal of information and sug-
gests various alternative operating methods.
This involves various “screens”.

MEGASTICK - AUTOMATIC DISTANCE AND DIAMETER
GAUGE:
when extracted, the Dimensions screen is selected
(
AUTOSELECT
).
This gauge allows measurement of the distance of the
wheel from the machine and the wheel diameter at the
point of application of the counterweight. It also allows
correct positioning of the counterweights on the inside rim
by using the speci
fi c function (
INDICATION OF EXACT
CORRECTION WEIGHT POSITION
) which allows reading, on
the monitor, the position used for the measurement within
the rim (for calibration, see the corresponding section).
5.1.1 Screen-saver
If the machine remains on the initial screen for a certain period
of time (as settable on-screen) without being used, the system
is automatically switched to a scree
n-saver. Pressing a ny key,
wheel movement or di diameter gauge movement
automatically switches from the screen-saver menu to the initial
screen. Automatic start-up operated by the protection system
is not available from the screen-saver for safety reasons.
5.2 AUTO SELECT
The machine automatically detects the right balancing
program for steel/ ALU M/ and ALU 3M-rims.
5.2.1 AUTO SELECT for steel rims
The screen appears upon moving the di diameter
gauge MEGASTICK.
Move the gauge tip of the MEGASTICK into contact against
the rim. Hold it in this position until a “beep” is heard.
