5 FITTING THE WHEEL ON THE SHAFT
To achieve perfect balancing, the wheel must be carefully and properly fitted on the shaft.
Imperfect centring will inevitably cause unbalances.
Most important is that original cones and accessories are used. made specifically for
use on the wheel balancer.
Wheel fitting using the cones provided is illustrated below.
For alternative fittings, using optional accessories, refer to the special instructions provided
separately.
1. Remove any type of
foreign body from the
wheel: already-existing
weights, stones and
mud, and make sure
the shaft and the rim
centring area are clean
before fitting the wheel
on the shaft.
2. Carefully choose the cone
most suitable for the wheel to
be balanced. These
accessories must be
selected according to the
shape of the rim.
Carefully position the wheel
using the cone (otherwise
this could seize) until this
rests against the support
flange.
3.
Fit the wheel
with the inner
side of the rim
towards the
wheel balancer
and against the
cone
.

Some aluminium wheels, with very high centring, must be fitted with the cone outside the
wheel.

fitting the wheel.
2. Fit the wheel with the
outside of the rim
towards the wheel
balancer, until the wheel
