Pro-Match/Weight minimisation  

   

Reading Un.7 - ===

 

(Fig. 128)   

Recommendation to readjust tire on the rim (the right display  
segments light up permanently).   

Choice 1: 

 Readjust tire on the  rim

 

 (standard program)   

  Index the wheel following the 

right

 direction indicator  

and provide a double mark on 

right

 side of the tire at  

12:00 o’clock.   

  Remove the wheel from the machine.   

  Readjust  the tire on  the rim until  the  double mark  coin-

cides with the valve.   

  Clamp the tire/rim assembly on the machine and turn  

until it is at the 12:00 o’clock position.   

  Press the PRO MATCH key to enter the valve position.  

Reading Un.8 comes up.   

  Press the START key (check run).   

If the minimisation run has been carried out correctly following  
the above sequence of operations, the balancer will return to  
the balancing mode selected before minimisation and read out  
the dynamic unbalance still left in the wheel 

(Fig. 128)

.   

  Balance the wheel according to the readings.   

Reading of error code E9   

If

 

E9 is read out, at least one error was made with respect to  

the sequence of operations  when performing minimisation  
(see § 11. Error  codes). Abort the minimisation  program by  
pressing the STOP key and, if desired, start minimisation once  
again.   

Choice 2: 

Do

 not 

readjust tire on the rim   

  Press the STOP key to return from the minimisation to  

the balancing program.   

The unbalance present in the wheel is read out.   

  Balance the wheel according to the readings.   

Reading H 0

 

(Fig. 129)   

Optimum condition has been  achieved and cannot  be  im-
proved.   

  Press the STOP key to return to the balancing program  

and balance the wheel according to the readings.
