“MANUAL MODE”
6.1.5 Wheel measuring run (in Manual)
Preliminary operations:
– If necessary, perform a compensation run(F 8.1).
– Check the wheel is clamped correctly (F 5.4).
– Select the Type of Vehicle (F 6.1.1).
– Imput the rim dimension parameters (F 6.1.3 ).
If more than one wheel of the same type needs to be
balanced (the same nominal dimensions) the data need
only be set for the fi rst wheel. The selections stay set
until other new data is set or the machine is switched off.
6.1.5.1 Axial Run-out test
Prior to the measuring run check the wheel for
radial and lateral run–out. If considerable run–out
i
s observed the tyre may be incorrectly fi tted on the
rim. In this case, the wheel should not be balanced.
When supplied from our works the machine is pro-
grammed such that the wheel is braked automatical-
ly when the wheel guard is raised (mode of opera-
tion “automatic braking when wheel guard is raised”
set to “enabled”).
Observation of the wheel is only possible when this
mode of operation is set to “disabled” (no braking of
wheel by raising of wheel guard, see § 10. Changing
modes of operation).
If the mode is set to “disabled”:
WARNING: THE WHEEL ROTATES
WHEN THE WHEEL GUARD IS OPEN.
MAKE SURE THAT THE WHEEL IS NOT
BLOCKED BY TOOLS OR THE LIKE.
WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES AND TIGHTLY
FITTING WORKING CLOTHES.
— If the wheel clamped on the balancer is to be
checked for visible radial and/or lateral run-out,
perform a visual check by lowering the wheel guard
and pressing the START key, prior to the actual
measuring run.
— Then raise the wheel guard and observe the wheel
for radial and lateral run–out while it slows down.
— Finally brake the wheel by operation of the STOP
key.
