About Measurements
There are three measurements of a Wheel that are important to understand for correct balancing.
The LS43B finds these measurements automatically when you use the Inner Arm and the Outer Arm.
The three measurements are:
•
Distance . The distance from the side of the Balancer to the Inner Edge of the Wheel.
Automatically measured by the Inner Arm.
•
Diameter
. The distance from Outer Edge to Outer Edge. Automatically measured by the Outer
Arm.
• Width . The distance from the Inner Edge of the Wheel to the Outer Edge. Determined
automatically from the Distance and Diameter values.
Inputting Measurement Data Manually
The LS43B determines measurement data automatically when you use the Inner Arm and the Outer
Arm, but you can enter measurement data manually if you like:
•
Distance . Pull out the Inner Arm to the desired location, note the value on the Distance Ruler,
and enter that value using the Distance

value using the Diameter
