Using The Offset Arm
When not in use or when prompted by the balancer
instructions, store the offset arm in the home position
as shown in figure 7.
Figure 7 - Location of Offset Arm (Stored In Home Position)
and Laser Locator
Use the offset arm gauge (figure 8A) to automatically
measure the distance from wheel to machine and
the wheel diameter at the point of weight application.
Also, use the offset arm for the correct positioning of
weight application on the inside rim as indicated by the
balancer instructions.
Figure 8A - Automatic A&D Measurement At Clip-on Weight
Location
Be sure to place the offset arm on the wheel flange at
the clip-on weight location as shown figure 8B.
Figure 8B - Clip-on Weight Location Viewed on a Cut-Away
Rim for Clarification.
Note: Use the offset arm to automatically measure
the A & D dimension for all balancing modes.
Note: Refer to page 15 to measure the A dimension
manually using the offset arm.
Note: The T2 Tape Direct Select™ Weight position is
the only mode that requires the A2 & D2 dimension
measurements.
Note: Use laser locators for correct positioning of the
T2 Tape Direct Select™ Weight position, refer to page 7.
If the T2 Tape (hidden Tape-A-Weight®) location is
selected, use the offset arm to enter A2 & D2 measure-
ments automatically. After the A & D measurement is
entered, move the arm from the clip-on weight location
to the inner area of the wheel; up against the rim at the
outboard weight placement location (see figures 9A &
9B). Wait for the BEEP.
