can also be used to apply three weights when needed. For example, a
large wheel may require 6.75 ounces. Not only is this size unlikely to be in the weight

apply one-third of the called for weight (in this case 2.25 ounces) at the 6.75 ounce
weight location and spin the assembly again. The display will now call for a 4.5 ounce
weight to be placed on top of the 2.25 ounce weight.

Another method to correct large imbalances may be achieved with Patch Balancing.
