4.1 FITTING THE WHEEL FIXTURE SHAFT
(SEE ATTACHED PROSPECTUS)
The balancing machine’s main advantage is its fi xed shaft
tool. This means that when the wheel is fi tted on the tool, it
is free to turn on its own bearings, exactly reproducing the
conditions of use when it is fi tted on the motor bike.
Balancing is not affected by inaccuracies in the wheel-
flange-shaft coupling typical of traditional rotating shaft
balancing machines. This means that you can achieve the
best possible accuracy. Use the AF12 or AF15 tools with
cones and axial blockage rings for wheels with traditional
fixture (through- journal).
Use the rotating AGF tool for wheels with outboard flanged
fixture (BMW, Honda).(See specfic brochure for correct
assembly).
Push the chosen tool well home into the balancing ma-
chine’s hollow shaft and block it in position by tightening
the screws accessible from the baseplate hole.
NOTE ON AGF TOOL
Remove it from the balancer after use to avoid permanent
deformation of brush bristles.
4.2 FITTING THE WHEEL
The AF12 and AF15 fi xed shaft tools enable you to fi t wheels
with a maximum hole of 35 mm on their own bearings. Do not
overtighten the threaded ring, as this would put excessive axial
load on the bearings. When you fi t the wheel, you will notice
that the brush adapts automatically (radially) to the shape of
the wheel hub. During balancing operations, the brush will
turn together with the wheel and transmit the motion to the
balancing machine’s built-in position transducer. If you use the
special AGF tool, the rotating movement will be transmitted
to the brush by the rotating part of the tool.
