tance rod has been replaced with a more robust Metal

the bead seat area of the rim for all normal measure-
ments (clip-on weights and Rim Runout) and the large
diameter is placed at the point of application for tape-a-
weights.

machine is 1800 or 1850 and the appropriate menus
appear.

reset on startup.
