B 235 Evo
• Manually applied adhesive weights with laser device enabled (if provided)
- Select the first side to be balanced
- Turn the wheel until the central element of the corresponding position indicator lights
up together with the laser line
- Apply the indicated balancing weight in the position on the rim corresponding to 6
o'clock.
Some slight residual unbalances may remain at the end of the test spin due to the
considerable difference in shape that may be found on rims having the same rated
dimensions. Therefore modify the value and position the previously applied weights
for accurate wheel balancing.
9. APPLYING BALANCING WEIGHTS IN
ALU 1P OR ALU 2P PROGRAMMES
• Adhesive weights applied with a weight-holder device (if available), after modifying
the application position from 12 o'clock to CLIP in the “Adhesive weight application
position” set-up menu
1 Select the first side to be balanced
2 Turn the wheel until the central element of the corresponding position indicator lights
up. Keeping the wheel in position with the clamping brake, a display will now show
the quantity of the weight to be applied in gr/ounces and the other will display the
distance in mm alternatively to the plane identification abbreviation (A-1 for Inner
Plane/A-2 for Outer Plane)
3 position the adhesive weight inside the cavity of the weight-holder device (fig. 23,a,b)
4 remove the protective film from the adhesive (fig. 23c)
5 move the sensor until it reaches the position signalled by the display unit.
During this phase, the unbalance value of the side to be balanced is shown on one
display, whereas the numerical value updated according to the sensor position, which
becomes zero when the position for application of the weight is reached, is shown
on the other display.
6 turn the end of the measuring arm until the weight adhesive strip is in line with the
rim surface
7 press the button (fig. 23d) to eject the weight and make it stick to the rim
8 return the measuring arm to its idle position (fig.23e)
9 repeat the operations to apply the second balancing weight
10 perform a test wheel spin to check the balancing accuracy.
The rim surface must be perfectly clean to make the weight stick efficiently to the rim. If
necessary, clean the surface using suitable cleansing products.
