DST30P Wheel Balancer
12
P/N 5900163 — Rev. C1 — March 2020
Finding a Location
Keep in mind the following when deciding on a location:
•
Power source
. The Balancer needs to be near an appropriate power source.
• Floor . The Balancer is best used on a flat, concrete floor. If the floor is unstable or not flat, the
Balancer will not work correctly; the readings will not be right.
• Accessibility . You need some space to move the Wheels you are going to balance to and from
the Balancer.
•
Danger
. When a Wheel is spinning on the Balancer, you need to keep people away from it. Do
not set up the Balancer in a well-travelled area. Everyone except the Operator should be at least
30 feet away from the Balancer when it is in use.
• No water . The Balancer has electronic components. If the Balancer gets wet while turned on,
those electronic components will most likely short circuit and have to be replaced.
⚠
WARNING Do not use the Balancer if it is sitting in water. You will almost certainly short circuit
the electronic components in the Balancer and you could electrocute yourself.
Clearances
A certain amount of space around the Balancer is required.
You also need enough room
above
the Balancer for the Hood to move up and down freely.
