3.2.

Using the Wheel Balancer

3.2.1. use the balancer on a stable, level surface. If necessary

adjust the feet until the bubble level is central. Screw the leg

nuts tight to the base to secure the legs.

3.2.2. Slide the balancer spindle through the motorcycle wheel

hollow axle and slide a cone onto either end of the spindle so

that the tapered ends enter the wheel bearings. When the

wheel is central on the spindle, secure the cones by

tightening the grub screw in each using a 3mm hex key.

check that the wheel is central on the spindle and firmly

secured by the cones for best results. See fig.3

3.2.3. With the wheel securely on the wheel balancer, gently rotate

the wheel. When the wheel settles, the spot at the bottom of

the wheel is the heavy spot.

3.2.4. now with the heavy spot at the bottom mark the top of the

wheel directly opposite the heavy spot using chalk or

adhesive tape. This is the light spot see fig.4A.

3.2.5. Gently spin the wheel again to ensure that the heavy spot will

again settle at the bottom. (fig.4)

3.2.6. Attach some wheel weights to the rim of the wheel at the

light spot (fig.4A) and spin the wheel gently.

3.2.7. If the light spot falls to the bottom, too much weight has

been added to the wheel. If the heavy spot falls to the bottom,

not enough weight has been added to the wheel. Add /

remove weight as required (fig.5)

3.2.8. Turn the light spot 90 degrees so it sits horizontally with the

heavy spot and observe its movements, if again it falls to the

bottom, too much weight has been added, if the heavy spot

falls, too little weight has been added. (fig.5)

3.2.9. repeat until the light spot and heavy spot are on a horizontal

line through the centre of the wheel. once this has been

achieved the wheel should rest still at any position through

the wheels circumference.
