16.3.3 Connection to the power supply
WARNING
High electrical voltage! Connection of the machine to the power supply by persons who are not specially trained in the handling of electricity (electricians) can lead to serious injuries or death. The machine may therefore only be wired by persons specially trained for working with electricity (electricians)!
Observe the information on voltage and frequency on the type plate on the back of the machine!
It is recommended to provide the machine with its own electrical connection via a suitable circuit breaker.
The mains cable of the machine should be fitted with a plug that complies with the applicable regulations.
When connected directly to the mains control without plug, it is advisable to lock the main switch of the balancing machine with a padlock so that it can only be operated by authorised persons.
16.3.4 Calibration
For proper operation, the instrument must be calibrated after installation and connection to the power supply. In addition, calibration is always advisable if there are doubts about the correctness of the displayed measurement results.
17 OPERATION
17.1 Mounting the tyre
- Select the appropriate cone for the wheel center hole and slide it onto the threaded shaft.
- Slide the wheel onto the threaded shaft.
- Lock the wheel using the quick-release nut.
17.2 Setting the dimension
17.2.1 Determining and setting the distance value (a)
- Pull out the special gauge to the inner rim edge
(The increment of the scale is 0.5cm the full range is reached at 18 cm.)
-
Read the distance value from the scale.
-
Set the value a using the corresponding arrow keys on the control panel (MANUAL INPUT DISTANCE (a)) to the desired value.
17.2.2 Determining and adjusting the nominal size (b)
Set the nominal size (b). It usually can be found on the rim. If necessary, use the grab compass, to determine the nominal diameter (b) by placing the heads of the grab compass on the left and right side of the rim and reading the value from the scale on the grab compass (see diagram above).
The value is entered by pressing the MANUAL INPUT WIDTH key (b) on the control panel using the corresponding arrow keys.
The increment of the scale is 5 millimeters or for inch input 0.25 Inches. The following values are shown in the display (for inch-setting only):
.2 for 14 inches; .5 for 12 inches and .7 for 34 inches
17.2.3 Determining and adjusting the nominal diameter (d)
The nominal diameter is indicated on the tyres. Enter the value by pressing the MANUAL INPUT DIAMETER (d) key on the control panel using the corresponding arrow keys.
17.3 Self-Calibration
NOTICE
Entering the wrong dimensions will cause the machine to be incorrectly calibrated and all subsequent measurements to be incorrect until a new self-calibration with the correct dimensions is performed.
To self-calibrate the machine, proceed as follows:
- Mount any wheel on the shaft, even if it is not balanced; better still, if it has an average size.
- Set the exact dimensions of the wheel (a, b, d value).
| F + C → CAL | 3 Press the F and C button on the control panel simultaneously until the display shows CAL. | CAL. and the LEDs stop flashing. |
| START → Add | 4 Close the hood and press the START button. A complete turn is performed and the display shows Add 100. |
| 5 Attach a 100 gram reference weight to any position on the outside of the rim. | |
| 6 Press START again. | |
| START → End | 7. After a second cycle, the display shows END CAL. Now the calibration procedure is complete. |
| 8. Remove the reference weight and balance the wheel as described in the following section. |
The value measured by the machine during the self-calibration cycle is automatically kept in a special memory, which stores it even when the machine is switched off. This means that the machine is immediately ready for operation after being switched on again. Self-calibration should be carried out from time to time or if there are doubts about the correctness of the measured results.
17.4 Measuring unbalance
To perform an unbalance measurement, close the protective cover. Depending on the setting, also press the START button.
The wheel is brought up to speed within a few seconds, decelerated again and the unbalance values are displayed on the control panel.
Slowly turn the wheel counterclockwise until all LED's of the digital display for the internal unbalance value light up. The correct position for attaching the weight is then exactly in the 12 o'clock position on the inside of the rim.
Then slowly turn the wheel clockwise until all the LED's on the digital display for the external unbalance value light up. The correct position for attaching the weight is then exactly in 12 o'clock position on the outside of the rim.
Note: Lightly pressing Button C in the 12 o'clock position displays the preset dimensions one after the other.
To measure again, close the hood after attaching the weights and press the START button if necessary.
17.5 Recalculation of the unbalance
To recalculate the unbalance, set the dimensions as described in chapter 17.2 Setting the dimension
Without repeating the measurement cycle press key C.
The newly determined unbalance values are displayed.
17.6 Minimizing static unbalance
For commercial weights with a gradation of five grams (5 g) each, static unbalances of up to 4 g can remain, as they fall below the sensitivity of the display. In such cases, the device displays zero. To display such "residual unbalances" (< 5 g), press the FINE key.
17.7 Functions
17.7.1 Static - Alu
The available functions indicate where the correction weights are to be placed in positions other than the normal positions. To select a specific function, press the ALU and F keys.
The unbalances are displayed according to the selected correction position.
| Symbol | Function | Description |
| Normal | The Normal function is used for balancing steel or light alloy rims by applying weights to the rim edges. | |
| Static | The Static function is required on motorcycle wheels or when it is not possible to place the weights on both sides of the rim. | |
| ALU1 | The ALU1 function is used to balance light alloy wheels by attaching the adhesive weights to the rim shoulders. | |
| from rim plane of rest | ALU2 | The ALU2 function is used for balancing light alloy wheels with concealed application of the outer adhesive weight. (The position of the external weight is as shown in the figure.) |
| ALU3 | Function ALU3 - Combined balancing: Attachment weight inside; concealed attachment of the adhesive weight outside. |
17.7.2 Optimizing an unbalance
NOTICE
Carry out the following steps with the utmost care in order to achieve the best possible result.
The optimization function is used to reduce the weight to be added to the wheel to balance it. This design is recommended if the static unbalance is more than 30 grams. In many cases this can improve the residual eccentricity of the wheel.
The function is called by pressing the OPT key (to exit, press the STOP key)
Press the Start key. The display shows the required rotation of the tyre (180^) . Mark adapter and rim with chalk with a reference mark so that you are able to mount the rim in the same position again later. (Use index on the shaft.)
Turn the tyre 180^ on the rim using a tyre remover.
Refit the rim to the threaded shaft in the previous position.
Press the START key again.
Right display: Value of the possible reduction of the left unbalance in relation to the current wheel situation in percent. Left display: current static unbalance value in grams. (It is the value that can be reduced by a wheel-rim rotation.)
Turn the wheel until the outer LEDs light up.
Mark the tyre at the top (12 o'clock)
Also mark the border according to the position indicated by the inner LEDs.
In the example given here, the static unbalance of 45g is reduced by 80% with a remaining residual unbalance of approx. 9g .
17.7.3 Visual inspection of the running surface
To perform a visual inspection of the tread condition, it is necessary to rotate the wheel with the guard open.
Performing:
- Press the F key with one hand while pressing the START key with the other hand.
A complete cycle is performed. The function is then automatically deactivated.

22 TROUBLESHOOTING
22.1 Error Codes
Certain errors occurring during operation are automatically detected by the device system and shown on the display by means of an error code - see table below:
| Error Code | Fault | Possible cause | Remedy |
| 1 | No rotation signal | Faulty position sensor, rotation obstacle (something prevents the wheel from turning) or faulty computer board | Replace position encoder Remove obstacle If necessary, contact your dealer. |
| 2 | Speed is less than 60 revolutions per minute | No wheel mounted, faulty position sensor or faulty computer board | Mounting tyres Replace position encoder If necessary, contact your retailer |
| 3 | Miscalculation | Incorrect self-calibration, excessive unbalance or faulty circuit board | Repeat self-calibration, check correct wheel centering on the shaft; contact your retailer if necessary |
| 4 | Wrong direction of rotation | Incorrect direction of rotation, faulty position encoder or faulty computer board | Replace position sensor, correct direction of rotation, contact your retailer if necessary |
| 5 | Faulty computer board | Faulty computer board | If necessary, contact your retailer |
| 7 | Card related error | Incorrect self-calibration or faulty computer board | Repeat self-calibration; contact your retailer if necessary |
| 8 | Memory error during self-calibration | Start of a second cycle without reference weight, crack in transformer cable, faulty computer board or faulty power supply board | Attach reference weight, replace transformer cable, contact your retailer if necessary |
22.2 Inconsistent unbalance measured values
When a wheel that has already been balanced is mounted again for balancing, it sometimes seems as if the wheel has not yet been balanced.
This is usually not due to an incorrect display of the machine, but to the mounting of the wheel on the adapter - i.e. in the two brackets the wheel has taken a different position in relation to the centre line of the balancing machine.
Small errors of up to ten grams (4 oz) are considered normal for wheels fixed by cones; for wheels locked with screws or bolts, the error is usually greater.
If the wheel is mounted on the adapter with screws, it may be that the screws are not tightened properly - they should be tightened one by one, or, as is often the case, holes have been drilled on the wheel with too much tolerance.
If a balanced wheel does not run smoothly after being reinstalled in the vehicle, this may also be due to an imbalance in the car brake drum or (very often) to holes drilled in the rim and drum bolts with excessive tolerances. In this case, rebalancing with the wheel mounted on the vehicle can be useful.
