Diagram
Using The Laser Locator
If the T2 - Tape (hidden Tape-A-Weight ® ) location is
selected, use the laser locator to point to the hidden
weight location (figures 8 & 7B). Rotate laser locator
knob to position the laser dot outboard at the desired
T2-Tape (hidden Tape-A-Weight ® ) location.
Note: For best performance, choose a weight posi-
tion outboard as far inward (in the rim) as wheel
allows.

Location (A2)
Note: The T2 - Tape Direct Select™ Weight position is
the only mode that requires the A2 & D2 dimension
measurements.
Using The Line Laser
If the T2 - Tape (hidden Tape-A-Weight ® ) location is
selected, use the line laser to align the offset arm with
the laser locator dot (figures 8 & 7B); entering A2 & D2
measurements automatically. Grasp arm at the line
laser and pull out and up to the wheel flange (figure
6B). Hold arm still at the clip-on weight location and
wait for BEEP. Then, before returning arm to home
position, press button on line laser to activate the line
laser beam. Move arm to inner area of wheel and align
line laser beam with laser locator dot (figure 8). Hold
arm still, up against the rim, in the same plane as the
T2-Tape (hidden Tape-A-Weight ® ) location (figure 7A &
7B) and wait for BEEP. Refer to figure 9.
Note: The line laser remains on for ten seconds after
its button is pushed.
