BASELINE 225 - Manual (Page 19)

Important: Always read and follow instructions. • 15
OPT 1
• Mount the rim without the tire on the balancer.
• Turn it until the valve (or hole) is at 12 o’clock.
• Press .
• Make the first spin (as instructed by the display). At
the end of the spin, the program goes into its sec-
ond stage.
OPT 2
• Remove the rim from the balancer.
• Put the tire on the rim. Put the tire on the balancer.
• Turn it until the valve is at 12 o’clock.
• Press .
• Make the second spin. At the end of the spin, the
program goes into the third stage of the OPT pro-
gram.
OPT 3
• Turn the wheel until the segment in the middle of the
screen lights up to indicate the position.
• Make a chalk mark on the outside wall of the tire at
12 o’clock.
• Remove the wheel from the balancer.
• Turn the tire on the rim until the chalk mark is oppo-
site the valve (i.e. 180°).
• Remount the wheel on the balancer until the valve
is at 12 o’clock.
• Press .
• Make the third spin. At the end of the spin, the pro-
gram goes into its fourth and last stage.
OPT 4
• Turn the wheel until the segment in the centre lights
to indicate the correct position.
• Make two chalk marks on the outside wall of the tire
at 12 o’clock. If the screen gave you the message to
switch around the tire as it is mounted on the rim,
make these two chalk marks on the inside wall of
the tire.
• Turn the tire on the rim (and switch it around if this is
called for) so that the two chalk marks are opposite
to the valve.
• Mount the wheel on the balancer.
• Turn the wheel until the valve is at 12 o’clock.
• Press .
• Make the forth spin. At the end of the spin, the OPT
program is complete, and the machine displays the
corrective weight amounts to balance the wheel.
If you make an error, which will negatively affect the
end result, the machine will tell you this by, displaying a
message: OPT Err. This means you need to repeat the
entire procedure from the beginning.
Note: If you do not want to make the first spin with
just the empty rim, you can skip the first phase by
pressing immediately after pressing the
for the OPT program. This will mean that you start by
mounting the rim plus tire on the balancer and carrying
out phases 2, 3, 4 as previously described.
Note: At the end of the second and third spin you may
get the message OUT 1 or OUT 2 on the screen. This
means that you are better off abandoning the program
by pressing the . The display will then give the
weights needed to balance the wheel. This allows you
to short cut (exit) the program by accepting the current
status. If you want to carry on to the end, press the
and you will continue in the OPT program.
Note: At the end of the third spin the screen may sug-
gest that you switch the tire around on the rim. If you do
not want to or cannot do this, press . The screen
will display instructions on how to complete the OPT
program without making this switch.
Quick OPT Program
In the vast majority of cases this program gives results
almost as good as the full OPT program described
above, although it requires fewer spins.
Proceed as outlined above in the previous heading
with the difference that the first stage of the quick opti-
mization program corresponds to the second stage of
the standard program.
You therefore start work with the tire already on the
rim and then proceed with the successive stages.
