Remove the weight from the outside of the rim. Use your hand to rotate the tire until all
5 of the lights in the

are on, as shown here:
Then place the 100gram or 3.5 Ounce weight that came with the machine at 12 0’clock
on the inside of the rim using the provided wheel hammer. 100 grams = 3.5 ounces so
either weight is ok. Remember that at anytime you can switch from Grams to Ounces
and back by just pushing the
C
button.
After placing the weight, close the hood and spin the wheel. The machine will beep and
you will see the following screen for a short time:
After showing this screen, the machine will automatically return to the initial balancing
screen. You have successfully calibrated the machine and the data was saved
automatically.
Please note that if you do not put a wheel weight on the rim, the machine will not

This is an example of balancing a steel wheel:
Start by placing the wheel on the machine and entering the parameters. Close the hood
and spin the wheel. You will see:
