4. Set the Rim Width Knob as measured with the

Calliper.

Note: If the tire is too wide to accept the callipers,

then measure over the thread width.

5. Set the Rim Offset Knob as follows.

a. Pull the rim offset scale arm out and position the

tip against the rim flange surface (regardless of

where the inner weight will be placed).

b. Read the rim distance value off the scale arm at

the point where it enters into the housing.

c. Set the Offset Knob to the rim distance value.

6. Spin the wheel.

a. Raise wheel using lift crank handle at top of

balancer. Wheel should clear the floor by

approximately 1/2"(13mm). Greater clearance is

unnecessary and would require additional cranking

to lower and stop the wheel.

b. Turn the spindle crank handle until a beep is heard.

Release handle immediately. Do not interfere with

the machine or wheel during the measuring cycle

or wrong readings can occur. Normal balance

speed is between 70 and 84 rpm. If spun too fast,

the buzzer will sound continuously until the wheel

slows to proper measurement speed. The balancer

will function normally even when a wheel is spun

too fast, however balancer cycle time will increase.

A second buzzing sound will indicate that the

measuring cycle is complete.

c. Stop the wheel by using the lift crank handle to

lower the wheel until it touches the ground. Car/

Light Truck Wheels can be stopped by using the

weight hammer against the tire side-wall.

Note:

Do not use your hand to stop
the wheel.
