- 20 -
1) Adjust the SFA data: After the calibration, if the 100g weight is not directly under the wheel
spindle (six o’clock position) or the data is not correct, this function can be used to know the offset
degree of the weight. Move this weight, and press the and buttons, nine seconds
later the indicators will stop flashing, press button of“a”value, then press the button of the
“a ”value quickly，when all the indicators went out, press the button, the left screen display
“dis”，the right screen display the readings，it is not necessary to pay attention to this, press again
the button of the“a”value，( at this time the button represents going into the next
program）the “In-l” on left will display，the right screen display the reading, then press the
button of the “a”value, it will go the SFA window，the right screen display the reading of the
position where the 100g weight located. If it need to change the reading, press the or
buttons of the “L” value to adjust the offset degree of the100g weight, then press the of the
“a”value to exit，do the calibration again, sometimes it is necessary to adjust the SFA reading
again and again, till the 100 weight directly under the wheel spindle
.
2) Adjust “dis” reading：this function used for solving the problem of inside unbalancing value.
Balance the wheel and place 100g weight on the outside of the tire, the reading on the screen will
display in the range of 104-96, take the 100g weight and place it on the inside of the tire, after stop,
the reading is in the range of 104-96, which means normal. If the reading is not between this, the
operator should adjust the “dis” value，the method for finding the “dis” reading is the same as the
way for finding the SFA reading.（adjust the and buttons corresponding to“L”buttton），
after the adjustment go back to the original position, then do the self-calibration again.
3) Adjust the In-1 reading：this function can solve the problem of the divided reading ( inside and
outside). If place a 100g weight on the inside of the tire, the inside screen display 90g, the outer
screen display 10, this function can be used, after the self-calibration go into the In-l program of
adjusting the stored reading. The method for finding the In-1 reading is the same as the way for
finding the SFA reading, according to the inside reading to increase or reduce the In-1 reading
(adjust the and buttons corresponding to“L”buttton)，if the reading more than 110g，it
is necessary to reduce this item and exit，then go back to the original position and do the
self-calibration.
12 Use for grease
12．1Grease the balancer
The rotating part for the balancer is only the motor and the balancing shaft, so only the
bearing for these two part need greased, the operator can check the bearing periodically.
If the machine used often (more than two hours one day), the bearing should be check
annually；if the machine not used much, it can check every two year.（the bearing can not
be open for testing, the screwdriver can gore up on the bearing, then hear the sound, to
test it）The bearing is the block out bearing, so the grease not easyto change and out,
also the rotate speed is not high for the machine itself, so it is not necessary to change
the grease. If feel the bearing work abnormal or there is some noise, the bearing can be
