Operation Guide

7. Attach the Weight.

a. Starting with either side of the wheel, rotate the

wheel in the direction of the lit arrow until all 6

Arrow Indicators and the Top Dead-Center Indicator

are lit. The correct balance weight will now be

displayed.

b. Securely apply the displayed weight at the top-

dead-center location on the indicated side of the

wheel.

c. Repeat steps 7a and 7b for the other side of the

wheel.

8. Do a Check Spin

Repeat the spin cycle (step 6). Zero weight readings

should appear for both sides of the rim.

Optional: If desired wheels may also be Fine Balanced

to 2 gram (Car/Light Truck) or 5 gram (Truck) accuracy.

Press the Fine Button on the left side of the Control

Panel. It is necessary to spin the wheel again when

the Car LED is lit, as the balancer calculates the fine

balancing requirements from the previous

measurements, and the Display will show the weight

requirements. When balancing Truck wheels, it is

necessary to re-spin the wheel after switching to Fine.

If a repeatable balance can not be achieved, there is a

possibility of foreign material moving around inside of

the tire causing a different imbalance every time. This

material must first be removed before the wheel can

be balanced.
