WEIGHT MODES
The COATS balancer features one Normal (clip-on) and
four Custom (Alu/Mag) Modes for combinations of clip-
on and stick-on weight s. A static balancing mode is
also included.
As the Mode Select Button on the control panel is
pressed, the Weight Location LED Indicators on the
Display Panel indicate the desired weight location.
When placing the weights for any of the Alu/Mag
modes, observe the location dimensions shown
opposite. Note also that these dimensions differ for Car/
Light Truck (diameter set below 17") and Truck wheels.
The balancer is programmed for these dimensions,
other placement locations will require different weights.

on weights on the inner and outer rim flanges.
