the OUTER side change- All of the LEDs will light up when the position where the
weight will be added to is at top-dead-center (12 O’clock) (as shown in the following
figure). Attach the balance weight at the outside 12 O’ clock position of the rim.

STEP 4: Slowly rotate the wheel counterclockwise again, you will see the Weight Position
LEDs for the INNER side change- All of the LEDs will light up when the position
that the weight will be added to is at top-dead-center (12 O’clock) (as shown in the
following figure). Attach the balance weight at the inside 12 O’clock position of the
rim.

STEP 5: Put down the protective cover; press the “START” key. The wheel will spin again.
After the spin has ended, the display window should read: “00” “00”.If it does, the
wheel is completely balanced. If the display shows another value, add the weight
amount indicated according to the instructions above, and spin the wheel again. Most
wheels will require 3 or fewer cycles to successfully balance. Many will be balanced
on the first cycle. Practice makes perfect!

Use the following instructions
to make the measurement more accurate:
STEP 1: Press the “START” key to begin the wheel spin, follow the procedure described in the
wheel balancing section to find out the weight’s radial position. Then, find out the
axial positions where the weight will be attached as follows:
STEP 2: Pull out the distance pointer to the distance of aI, hold the pointer position, and locate
the balance weight with the pointer. Then attach the weight at the position where the
Left LED fully flashes.
STEP 3: Pull out the distance pointer to the distance of aE, hold the pointer position, and
locate the balance weight with the pointer. Then attach the weight at the position
where the Right LED fully flashes.
STEP 4: Press [START] key, to spin the wheel again. When the remaining weight values are
less than 5 grams, the wheel is balanced.

20

OPTIMIZE BALANCING FUNCTION
This function is recommended only when the static balancing values are over 30 grams.
Use this function to optimize the balancing accuracy and reduce amount of weight to be added.
To get the best results, follow the following procedure carefully:
STEP 1: Press key [OPT], the display will read:[OPT] [
].
STEP 2: 2) Press [START] to activate a spin cycle. When the spin is finished, the will display
read: [ I ] [180 ]. The “180” displayed in the middle means the tire needs to be
remounted with the tire rotated 180 degrees from its current position on the wheel.
Mark the wheel and the balancer cone so that the same mounting position on the
balancer can be used in later steps.
STEP 3: Use a tire changer to re-mount the tire on the wheel, with the tire rotated 180 degrees
on the rim. Inflate the tire fully. Use the marks made earlier on the cone and wheel to
align the wheel and re-mount the wheel on the balancer.
STEP 4: Press [START]. After one spin cycle is completed, the display will read:[ #] [80┍┙].
The right window will indicate the static balance weight reduction rate after
re-mounting tire. This number is a percentage (“┍┙”= %).
The left window will indicate the weight to be added. See the example below:

In this example, 45 grams will be added. Add the weight indicated,
and perform a spin cycle to verify the wheel is balanced.
