7.0 ALU-S MODE
This is a mode similar to ALU mode 2 and 3. The differ-
ence is that wheel parameters are accurately defined
for a more exacting weight placement, therefore improv-
ing the likelihood of a single spin balance. Follow the
procedures below:
1.
Press the Alu-s/Spoke button to activate the ALU-S
mode, the display will read "
ALU
" for 1 second.
2.
Extend the rim offset gauge arm and touch the posi-
tion of the left weight position. See Figure 31. The
display will read “
d - I
” on its center window with the
distance displayed in its left window and new diameter
in the right window. The high tone will sound when
dimensions are entered. Return the gauge arm to the
rest position, a low pitch tone will indicate when it is OK
to proceed.
3.
The machine displays “
d - 2
”. Move the parameter
arm to the right weight position. See Figure 32. The
display will read “
d - 2
” on its center window with the
distance displayed in its left window and new diameter
in the right window. The high tone will sound when
dimensions are entered. Return the gauge arm to the
rest position, a low pitch tone will indicate when it is OK
to proceed.
4.
Lower the wheel guard to spin the wheel. The dis-
play will read “
ALU
” during the spin cycle.
5.
After spinning, the machine displays both the left
and right plane imbalance weight and position with its
color LEDs.
Rotate the wheel until the left Green LED indicates cor-
rect position for the left correction weight.
6.
Extend the gauge arm. The left display shows the
weight to be applied, the right display shows the dis-
tance the gauge arm has to travel to get to the correc-
tion plane. A high beep will sound when the correct
position is reached, at the same time the right display
will read “
0
“. A reading of “
- - -
“ in the distance window
means the gauge arm is over extended. Apply the weight
amount indicated in the left window.
Return the gauge arm to its home position.
7.
The right plane correction weight will be applied next
as in step 6 above. The steps outlines are:
- Extend the arm until “0” is indicated in left window.
- Position the wheel in the weight application position
- Apply the displayed weight.
NOTE
: Returning the gauge arm to the “Home” position
toggles between the left and right correction plane.
NOTE
: To exit ALU-S mode and return to two plane
DYN (dynamic) mode press “Mode” button. The ma-
chine displays "
ALU OFF
" for one second and then
enters idle state in the 2-pl DYN mode
NOTE
: Inspect the rim and available weights and use
good judgement in your selection. Weights should not
interfere with any suspension parts or make contact
during rotation. If a weight does make contact, use an
alternate location and select an appropriate mode.
