6.2 WHEEL

BALANCING

6.2.1 Measuring unbalance

Move the front lever to the right bring

ing the pulley into

contact with the tyre and press the run button on the side
holding the lever pushed in order to spin the wheel. If
used without motor, spin the wheel by hand respecting
the correct direction of rotation (anticlockwise).
Release the lever and the START key when the

displays go off, the machine will then start making
measurements.
When the displays show the measurement values, brake

the wheel by re-establishing contact with the pulley,
which is braked when the motor is off. Instruments 1
and 2 will keep the dynamic unbalance values in their
memories. When balancing for static, the value is
shown on display 1.
LEDs on displays 3 and 4 will indicate the correction

position. If all the LEDs are alight, this means that
the correction weight should be applied to the vertical
apex. In static mode, both displays indicate the same
position

(static unbalance).

For small diameter wheels (scooters), launch always the

wheel by hand in anticlockwise direction (see arrow).

Measurement always begins when the displays go off.

6.2.2 Correcting the unbalance

STATIC:

Apply two identical correction weights at the

highest point of the wheel, one on the inside

shoulder and the other on the outside shoul

der of the rim. Each weight is half the value

indicated by the display. If you make the

correction with lead wire, springs or clamps

applied to the spokes, divide it onto one, tow

or more spokes, according to the size of the

unbalance.

DYNAMIC:

Apply the adhesive weights to the shoulders of

the wheel rim in the positions indicated by the

display for each of the sides.

Correction of inner side

Correction of outer side

Digital readouts with LED ‘s 3 - 4 lit up indicate the correct
angular wheel position to mount the counterweights (12 o’clock

position). In the event of unbalance less than the selected

threshold value

0

is displayed in place of the unbalance

value , with

it is possible to read the values below the

selected threshold gr. by gr.

INFORMATION

In rare cases and in temperature conditions near 0°, the
wheel balancer automatically activates a special measuring

cycle involving two successive measurements.

During the unbalance measurement, the word “START”
reappears to indicate to the user to bring the wheel back
up to speed. The accuracy of the unbalance values and

the reliability of the wheel balancer remain unchanged.

6.3 RECALCULATING

UNBALANCE

VALUES

Set the new dimensions as described above.

Press

, without repeating the spin.

The new recalculated unbalance values will be

displayed.

6.4

AUTOMATIC MINIMIZATION OF STATIC
UNBALANCE

This program is designed to improve the quality of ba-
lancing without any mental effort or loss of time by the
operator. In fact by using the normal commercially available
weights, with pitch of 5 in every 5 g, and by applying the
two counterweights which a conventional wheel balancer
rounds to the nearest value, there could be a residual static
unbalance of up to 4 g. The damage of such approximation
is emphasized by the fact that static unbalance is cause
of most of disturbances on the vehicle. This new function,
resident in the machine, automatically indicates the opti-
mum entity of the weights to be applied by approximating
them in an “intelligent” way according to their position in
order to minimize residual static unbalance.
