Hidden spoke placement
When spoked wheels are balanced, the hidden spoke place-
ment mode allows balance weights which would have to be at-
tached between two spokes according to the measured unbal-
ance to be placed in hidden position behind two spokes
adjacent to the unbalance location (see example,
Fig. 60
).
After a measuring run the electronic unit automatically calcu-
lates the positions behind the spokes and reads the balance
weight locations on the display panel.
The operating steps for the hidden spoke placement mode are
described and illustrated below.
