Selecting the balancing program

i
Static balancing is recommended for wheels with
a width of less than 3.5". In this case, only the rim
diameter value is entered.
i
To correctly function the program, make sure that the
values entered for the distance and width, are greater
than 0.
¶
Press the <MODE> button to select the various ba-
lancing programs one after the other.
"
The locations of the balancing planes for each balan-
cing program are displayed through the LEDs (Fig. 9,
pos. 1).
i
The balancing plane is the plane to application of the
counterbalance or, simply, balancing weight.
i
By convention, the Plane/internal weight is that
closest to the object holder tray; vice-versa, the
Plane/external weight is always the farthest from the
object holder tray.
