conventional TDC method. If TDC placement is desired, press the “Stop”
button to disable servo and rotate the wheel to TDC and attach weight.
Find BDC for static plane as shown below.
Attach adhesive weight at BDC in-line with the Dataset
®
arm disc edge.
PLACE WEIGHT NEAR
CENTER OF RIM
BDC
(BLINKING)
NOTE: It is recommended that the weight be attached near the
center of the wheel to provide minimum residual dynamic
imbalance.
If necessary, use the “Right Plane Split Weight
®
” to split weight.
Verify balance condition by spinning again. Display should show “zero.”
The STATIC / ALU balancing procedure is complete.
3.9 OPT-1 Optimizing Tire & Wheel Imbalances (Wheel with the Tire
Mounted Procedure)
“Optimizing” positions the wheel with respect to the tire, minimizing the amount of
correction weight required.
Use OPT-1 when the tire is already mounted on the wheel.
Mount the tire/wheel assembly on the spindle shaft with the valve stem at TDC.
Enter Standard wheel dimensions.
Press the
“Optimize” button once.
Press the
“Enter” button to begin procedure.
Display shows “Put” “Top,” and the valve stem is flashing. Rotate the wheel until the
valve stem is at TDC and press “Enter.”
Close safety hood and spin wheel.
After wheel stops, raise the safety hood.
Remove tire/wheel assembly from balancer, deflate tire and loosen the tire beads
from the wheel, then rotate tire 180 degrees on the wheel.
