DST-64T / DST642D Wheel Balancers
33
P/N 5900192 — Rev. F — March 2021
OPT (Optimize) Function
Not a Balancing Mode. The Optimize Function is an optional procedure to lessen the imbalance in a
Wheel that is more than 30 grams / 1 ounce out of balance.
For more information, refer to
Using the Optimize Function .
Before You Balance a Wheel
Before you balance a Wheel, you should:
•
Remove all existing Weights from the Wheel . If the Wheel already has Weights on it,
either Clip-On or Adhesive, take them off. They will throw off the new balancing process.
• Thoroughly clean the Wheel . Mud or dirt on the Wheel will impact the new balancing
process. Also, if you end up putting on Adhesive Weights, they must be placed onto a clean area.
• Put on appropriate eye protection . Do not use the unit unless you are wearing ANSI-
approved eye protection: safety glasses, a face shield, or protective goggles.
•
Make sure the area is clear
. Only the operator should be near (within 30 feet) of the Wheel
Balancer while the Wheel is turning.
When to Put Weight at Top Dead Center
Top Dead Center (TDC) is the highest point of the Wheel, also called 12 o’clock high. Depending on
what Balancing Mode you are using, you may be directed to place the weight at Top Dead Center in
Dynamic and Static Modes, but
not to ALU or HID Modes. ALU and HID Modes use the Weight
Applicator on the end of the Inner Arm to apply weight.
If you are using ALU or HID Balancing Modes, place weights on the Wheel using the Weight Applicator
on the end of the Index Arm,
do
not
put it at Top Dead Center .
Depending on the diameter of the Wheel to which the weight is being added, when you add weight
with the Weight Applicator, it is
not
usually going to be at Top Dead Center. In most cases, it will be
somewhere between 10 o’clock and 12 o’clock.
