unbalance. For unbalance within tolerance 0 (zero); using

values within tolerance can be viewed.

SPLIT FUNCTION

(unbalance

resolution)

The SPLIT function is used to position the adhesive weights
behind the wheel spokes (angle > 18°) so that they are
no longer visible (for alloy rims). Use this function in the
ALU or STATIC mode where the adhesive weight is ap-
plied inside the rim.

Enter the wheel dimensions in the ALU S mode and press
START.

Turn the wheel to the outer side unbalance correction

INFORMATION

The distance between the spokes must be at least 18°
and at most 120° (if not, the errors 24,25 or 26 appear).

Spokes with irregular or inconstant angles can be

compensated.

5.4 UNBALANCE

OPTIMISATION

This operation is performed to reduce the static unba-
lance of the wheel. It is suitable for static unbalance values
in excess of 30 grams.
