1.  Safety Instructions 

 

 

All operators should be properly trained.  Improper operations may result in 
incorrect measurement. 

 

All operators should not wear loose clothing or jewelry.  These things may 
become entangled with the wheel or spin shaft while using the balancer and could 
cause serious injury. 

 

All operators should were protective eye wear. 

 

Safety guard should be used to avoid injury. 

 

The wheel balancer contains electronics and should be kept indoors and in a dry 
environment.  Exposure to water can cause damage and is not covered under any 
warranty. 

 

Exposure to extreme heat can damage internal parts of the wheel balancer. 

 

The wheel balancer does not have an electrical surge protector.  The user should 
supply a surge protector to avoid damage to the wheel balancer in the event of an 
electrical surge or storm. 

 

Do not use the wheel balancer beyond its measurement or weight range.  Using 
the wheel balancer beyond its measurement or weight range could cause damage 
to the wheel balancer and does not ensure a precise balance of the wheel. 

 

Other safety regulations may be in place according to OSHA or your local city 
and county.  These should all be followed in addition to the instructions in this 
manual.
