When the wheel is correctly clamped with the spinner
the operator causes it to rotate by applying force to the
spinner knobs (fig.19).
Car wheels installed using the quick release flange are
spun by first fitting the relevant spin handle over one
of the wheel nuts (fig.20).
The correct direction of rotation, observing the wheel
from the spin position, is clockwise. If the wheel is spun
counter- clockwise the message "E Rot" will be displayed.
During acceleration, the segments on the display light
up in sequence to indicate that the wheel is approaching
data acquisition speed. A beep sounds once the correct
speed is reached.
Once balancing speed has been reached
stop spinning the wheel and allow it to coast
so that the unbalance values can be read.
If the wheel is spinning too fast the message
"Spd Hi" will be displayed and the machine
will start measurements only when the mes-
sage disappears.
To ensure the maximum precision of results
do not subject the machine to mechanical
stress while it is processing unbalance
signals.
Wait for the beep that indicates the termina-
tion of measurement computations.
Brake the wheel using the brake lever (D,
fig.4) located at the front of the machine.
Now clamp the wheel in the position indicated
by the machine to facilitate the application of weights.
Pull the lever to release the brake.
WARNING
To avoid the risk of clothing or fingers getting caught up in the spinner arms during
acceleration, move clear of the spin position as soon as you have released the spin knob.
- If the machine acquires incorrect signals during the spin cycle the message "E 32" will
be displayed indicating that the spin cycle must be repeated.
- If unbalance is greater than 1000 grams, the display will show only the part in excess of
the first kilogram with three decimal points. For example: 1250 g is shown .2.5.0
- If calculated unbalance values are greater than the maximum permitted (999 in CAR
mode and 1990 in TRUCK mode) the message "CCC" will be shown on the display.
