Assemble the wheel on the shaft; 2. Extract both sensors and rest them on the rim as shown in Figure 3.6; 3. Wait to hear the long acquisition beep and then set the sensors back to the rest position. During acquisition, the distance and diameter values are shown on the display.
GB 3.3.4 Automatic acquisition of the wheel dimensions for the ALS1 and ALS2 Programme Types To automatically enter the dimensions of the wheel in the ALS1 and ALS2 Programme types, proceed as follows: 1. Assemble the wheel on the shaft; 2. Extract the Distance/Diameter sensor and place it on the plane chosen as the internal plane.

F1, detail [4]). Block the wheel in this position by using the footbrake or electromagnetic brake (if present); 4. Slowly extract the sensor until you hear the continuous beep indicating that the internal balancing plane has been reached.
GB 5. Keep the Distance/Diameter sensor blocked at this distance, then, rotate it until the adhesive weight sticks on the rim. The sensor’s contact point on the rim will assume an intermediate position between 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock depending on the diameter of the rim. See also table T3.3; 6. Bring the Distance/Diameter sensor back in the rest position. The indications on the left and right display will be exchanged to indicate the search for the external balancing plane; 7.
4. MACHINE CALIBRATION To operate the machine properly, it must be calibrated. Calibration allows storing the mechanical and electrical parameters specific to each machine so as to provide the best balancing results. 4.1 When to carry out machine calibration Table T4 lists the cases in which machine calibration should be carried out. Calibration must be carried out whenever one or more of the conditions listed are active.
GB To run the machine calibration, proceed as follows: 1. Start-up the machine; 2. Remove the wheel and any other accessories from the shaft; 3. Press [F+P3]. The writing SER SER will be displayed (this means that we have entered the SERVICE g mode) (service pprogramme); 4. Press [P3] vehicle wheels); .

16. ... Calibration is completed: the machine automatically exits the calibration programme and returns to the NORMAL mode, ready to perform the balancing. If during machine calibration there are some anomalies, error codes will be displayed (e.g. Err 025). See chapter 6.1 Error Codes and act accordingly to eliminate the problem and to continue/repeat/cancel the calibration in progress.

The writing C A L wheels) will be displayed; S E R will be displayed (this means that we C A R (calibration for auto-vehicle and off-road vehicle 5. To select the MOTO (motorbike wheel) calibration type, press [P4] or [P5] . When the MOTO calibration type is selected, the machine automatically loads the geometric data of the motorbike flange g and automatically sets the MOTO Wheel Type and the ALU1 programme. 6.
10. At the end of the launch, the machine will display the writing C A L h 1 2 . Apply the calibration weight on the external side as shown in Figure F4.3. The calibration weight is to be applied on the hole that has the wording “CAL” marked on it; Fig. F4.3 Application of the sample weight on the external side of the flange for motorbikes on the shaft (Cal3 phase) 11. Bring the flange for motorbikes in perfect vertical pposition with the calibration weight at the top Start or lower the wheel guard.
GB The calibration in progress will be cancelled and the balancing results will use the calibration results for the MOTO Wheel Type previously used. Even in this case, the MOTO Wheel Type and the ALU1 Programme Type will remain set and the dimensions of the wheel will remain those set automatically by the machine for this type of calibration. 5.

Remove the wheel from the balancing machine, remove the bead from the tyre and rotate it until the valve matches the mark on the tyre; 10.
Note: This programme can be used with any Programme Type and with any Wheel Type. It can also be used to divide the static weight into two separate weights (especially useful with wheels for motorbikes). To use this programme, proceed as follows: g of the wheel without applying the external weight; 1. Perform the balancing to run the Hidden Weights programme. If the wheel is balanced on 2. Press [F+P5] the external side, the machine will display the message shown in figure F 6.
GB Fig. F6.4 Input of the weight W2 position 7. Rotate the wheel manually y until the point where you want to apply the external weight W2 is reached and press [P1] to confirm. The angle formed by the weights W1 and W2 must not be less than 120° and must include the external weight W. 8. If the chosen angle is greater than 120°, the machine will display Fig. F6.2 for one second and will emit a triple beep meaning to repeat the procedure in step 7 again.
Fig. F7.1 Enabling the memory of operator 2. The memory of operator 1 is stored. 2. Perform all desired settings for wheel dimensions, Programme Type, Wheel Type and unit of measure. The settings of operator 1 are stored in memory. 3. Perform balancing of the wheel or wheels. 4. When operator 2 has finished his task on the balancing machine, operator 1 presses [F + P6] p and thus restores all settings used by the latter.
GB 8. UTILITY PROGRAMMES Utility programmes are available only in NORMAL mode. 8.1 Selecting the imbalance display resolution The machine has two wheel imbalance display resolutions. The two resolutions are defined as X1 (high resolution) and X5 (low resolution). The resolution with which the imbalances of the wheel are displayed varies depending on the unit of weight as indicated in table T8.1. Table T8.

8.5.2 SWI procedure at low speed In the low speed p SWI procedure, the wheel has already run the launch and is stationary. If the operator Start with the wheel guard raised, the machine will apply slight acceleration to the presses [P8] wheel and then let the same spin by inertia. When the speed is low enough, the machine will wait until the wheel passes through one of the angular positions of imbalance, therefore, it will enable the electromagnetic clamping brake.
