Corrective Weight Placement

After the wheel spins and out of balances are mea-

sured and displayed, the corrective weight amount

appears on the weight display dials for Inboard and

Outboard weight locations. Bars appear on either side

of the wheel cross-section graphic to aid in positioning

the wheel for corrective weight at the application point.

After a measurement cycle, rotate wheel until the

center weight position bar blinks, indicating the cor-

rect weight placement position is at top-dead-center.

If the out-of-balance is less than the chosen threshold

value, 000 appears instead of an out-of-balance value

to indicate that, on that particular side, the wheel is in

tolerance.
