17.4.2 Search of the balancing planes with distance/diameter sensor gauge
The purpose of the balancing planes research is to find the balancing planes which were previously selected by the operator in order
to apply the balancing weights. Proceed as described below:
Phase
Description
010
Apply the weight shown on the left display
(internal position) on top of the
Distance/Diameter sensor gauge as shown here.
020
Manually rotate the wheel until all the internal
imbalance position leds light up (see figure here).
Block the wheel in this position with the help of
the pedal brake (if installed) or the
electromagnetic brake.
030
Slowly extract the sensor until you hear the
continuous beep indicating that the internal
balancing plane has been reached. The blue band
represents the application point of the internal
weight.
040
Block the Distance/Diameter sensor at this distance, then, rotate it until the adhesive weight sticks on the rim. The sensor
contact point will be a midway position between 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock, depending on the rim diameter.
050
Release the wheel and turn it by hand until all of
the external imbalance position leds light up.
Slowly extract the sensor until you hear the
continuous beep indicating that the external
balancing plane has been reached. The red band
represents the application point of the external
weight.
060
Block the Distance/Diameter sensor at this distance, then, rotate it until the adhesive weight sticks on the rim. The sensor
contact point will be a midway position between 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock, depending on the rim diameter.
