SELECTING WEIGHT POSITIONS
FOR DIFFERENT WHEEL TYPES
Prior to balancing, a specific
FUNCTION
must
be chosen for each particular wheel. The
function settings automatically compensate
weight location requirements for a particular
wheel type. These settings can be selected by
depressing the
FUN
button.
Dynamic
For balancing standard steel or alloy wheels
using clip-on weights attached to inner and
outer wheel edges.
Static
This function is used if stick-on weights are to
be mounted to the center plane ( hidden ) and
not to either inner or outer edges of the wheel.
AL1
This function is used if stick-on weights are to
be mounted to both inner and outer planes of
the wheel.
AL2
This function is used if stick-on weights are to
be mounted to the inner and center planes of
the wheel.
AL3
This function is used if stick-on weights are to
be mounted to the outer edge and inner plane
of the wheel.
AL4
This function is used if stick-on weights are to
be mounted to the inner edge and outer plane
of the wheel.
SELF-CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
The
CAL
button is used for self-calibration.
Since this balancer is a precision machine
it is required that you perform periodic
calibrations to assure its accuracy.
NOTE:
Before performing the self-calibration procedure,
make sure the balancer is bolted down and/or rigid to the
floor and that the shaft and centering cones are clean and
undamaged. Even the slightest dirt or damage can cause
inaccurate readings.
PAY CLOSE ATTENTION
to the
following procedure. If not followed correctly, the balancer
will not perform accurately.
This balancer
should be self-calibrated every 30 days.
1. Turn on the power.
2. Select a centering / mounting cone that best fits the center
hole of the wheel. (
NOTE:
A standard 14” steel wheel and tire
is recommended for this procedure.)
3. Lift the wheel onto the arbor and slide it back against the
arbor hub.
4. Slide the cone over the arbor and into the center hole of the
wheel. It will be necessary to lift the wheel slightly.
5. While holding the wheel and cone in position, thread the
hub nut over the arbor and secure tightly.
6. Enter the correct wheel data. ( Refer to page 12. )
7. Press the
FUN
to read
DY (DYNAMIC)
setting.
8. First press the
CAL
button ( and hold ) then the
START
button. Hold both simultaneously for six seconds. The display
screen will flash momentarily then display
CAL -- CAL
.
9. Press the
START
button. The wheel will spin for
approximately six seconds then stop.
ADD - 100
will be
displayed.
10. Place one 100 gram weight (included with balancer) on
the outside edge of the wheel directly opposite the valve stem.
11. Press the
START
button once again. The wheel will spin
for approximately six seconds then stop.
12.
END -- CAL
will be displayed.
13. The self-calibration is now complete.
