Weight Location Verification Test
The Weight Location Verification Test ensures the Balancer is producing accurate readings.
Before performing the Weight Location Verification Test, ma
ke sure the Balancer is anchored down
and/or rigid to the floor and that the shaft and centering cones are clean and undamaged. Dirt or
damage can cause inaccurate readings.
Important : Pay close attention to this procedure. If not done correctly, the Balancer will not
produce accurate readings, leading to Wheels not being balanced correctly.
A steel, undamaged Wheel of a size you commonly balance is needed for this procedure.
To perform the Weight Location Verification Test :
1. Balance the Wheel to fully balanced;
