READALL INSTRUCTIONS
1. Eye and face protection recommendations:
“Protective eye and face equipment is required to
be used where there is a reasonable probability of
injury that can be prevented by the use of such
equipment.” O.S.H.A. 1910.133(a) Protective gog-
gles, safety glasses, or a face shield must be pro-
vided by the owner and worn by the operator of
the equipment. Care should be taken to see that
all eye and face safety precautions are followed by
the operator. ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES.
Everyday glasses only have impact resistant
lenses, they are not safety glasses.
2. Do not disable hood safety interlock system, or in
any way shortcut safety controls and operations.
3. Be sure that wheels are mounted properly, the hub
nut engages the arbor for not less than four (4)
turns, and the hub nut is firmly tightened before
spinning the wheel.
4. Read and understand this manual before operat-
ing. Abuse and misuse will shorten the functional
life.
5. Be sure the balancer is properly connected to the
power supply and electrically grounded.
6. Do not operate equipment with a damaged cord or
if the equipment has been dropped or damaged –
until it has been examined and repaired by a quali-
fied serviceman.
7. Do not let cord hang over edge of table, bench, or
counter or come in contact with hot manifolds or
moving fan blades.
8. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a cur-
rent rating equal to or more than that of the equip-
ment should be used. Cords rated for less current
than the equipment may overheat. Care should be
taken to arrange the cord so that it will not be
tripped over or pulled.
9. Keep guards and safety features in place and in
working order.
10. Wear proper clothing. Safety toe, non-slip
footwear and protective hair covering to contain
hair is recommended. Do not wear jewelry, loose
clothing, neckties, or gloves when operating the
balancer.
11. Keep work area clean and well lighted. Cluttered
and/or dark areas invite accidents.
12. Avoid dangerous environments. Do not use power
tools or electrical equipment in damp or wet loca-
tions, or expose them to rain.
13. Avoid unintentional starting. Be sure the balancer
is turned off and power disconnected before serv-
icing.
14. Disconnect the balancer before servicing.
15. Use only manufacturer’s recommended acces-
sories. Improper accessories may result in per-
sonal injury or property damage.
16. Repair or replace any part that is damaged or worn
and that may cause unsafe balancer operation. Do
not operate damaged equipment until it has been
examined by a qualified service technician.
17. Never overload or stand on the weight tray or any
part of the balancer.
18. Do not allow untrained persons to operate machin-
ery.
19. To reduce the risk of fire, do not operate equip-
ment in the vicinity of open containers or flamma-
ble liquids (gasoline).
20. Adequate ventilation should be provided when
working on or operating internal combustion
engines.
21. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of
body away from moving parts.
22. Use equipment only as described in this manual.
23. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attach-
ments and accessories.

Owner’s Responsibility
To maintain machine and user safety, the responsibil-
ity of the owner is to read and follow these instruc-
tions:
• Follow all installation instructions.
• Make sure installation conforms to all applicable
Local, State, and Federal Codes, Rules, and
Regulations; such as State and Federal OSHA
Regulations and Electrical Codes.
• Carefully check the unit for correct initial function.
• Read and follow the safety instructions. Keep them
readily available for machine operators.
• Make certain all operators are properly trained,
know how to safely and correctly operate the unit,
and are properly supervised.
• Allow unit operation only with all parts in place and
operating safely.
• Carefully inspect the unit on a regular basis and
perform all maintenance as required.
• Service and maintain the unit only with authorized
or approved replacement parts.
• Keep all instructions permanently with the unit and
all decals/labels/notices on the unit clean and visi-
ble.
• Do not override safety features.
Operator Protective Equipment
Personal protective equipment helps make tire serv-
icing safer. However, equipment does not take the
place of safe operating practices. Always wear durable
work clothing during tire service activity. Loose fitting
clothing should be avoided. Tight fitting leather gloves
are recommended to protect operator’s hands when
handling worn tires and wheels. Sturdy leather work
shoes with steel toes and oil resistant soles should be
used by tire service personnel to help prevent injury in
typical shop activities. Eye protection is essential dur-
ing tire service activity. Safety glasses with side
shields, goggles, or face shields are acceptable. Back
belts provide support during lifting activities and are
also helpful in providing operator protection.
Consideration should also be given to the use of hear-
ing protection if tire service activity is performed in an
enclosed area, or if noise levels are high.

Important: Always read and follow the on-screen
operating instructions.
1.Turn the machine OFF then ON
(resets machine).
The initial screen is in dynamic mode using standard
clip-on wheel weight locations and wheel dimensions.
2. Mount a tire/wheel on the
balancer that will use standard clip-
on wheel weights.
Use the most appropriate mounting method.
3. Always remove any weights
already attached to the wheel.
Use the most appropriate mounting method. Always
remove any weights attached to the wheel.
4. Enter A & D wheel dimensions
using offset arm.
For Automatic Measurement — pull the offset arm
out to the wheel, hold it still at clip-on weight position
against the wheel flange, and wait for the BEEP.
Clip-on Weight Location — viewed on a cut-away rim
for clarification.
5. EnterWidth wheel dimension.
Enter Width at DIM screen or, if equipped with the
Hood Sensor System, lower the hood to automatically
measure tire width.
6.The wheel spins and unbalances
are measured and displayed.
The corrective weight amount appears on the video
display screen for the left and the right planes of the
wheel, see figure 3.
7. Raise hood after tire stops
rotating.
Note: If the hood is raised before the end of the
spin, an error screen will appear. Wait for the weight
amounts to display before raising the hood.
8. Rotate wheel to position left side
placement arrow at the center bar.
As illustrated in figure 3, rotate the wheel to position
the left side placement arrow at the center red bar.
Step on the positioning pedal to hold the tire in place.
9. Attach left side corrective weight
amount at top-dead center on the
inside flange of the wheel.
Attach specified corrective weight amount (0.25 oz in
figure 3) at top-dead-center on inside flange of wheel.
10. Rotate wheel to position right
side placement arrow at center bar.
Rotate the wheel to position the right side placement
arrow at the center red bar. Step on the positioning
pedal to hold the tire in place.
11. Attach the right side corrective
weight.
Attach specified weight amount (0.75 oz in figure 3) at
top-dead-center on the outside flange of the wheel.
12. Lower the hood to respin the
tire/wheel and check balance.
Your weight readings should now be 0.00.
Note: Throughout this manual tire dimensions are
referred to as A, W, and D, see figure 2.

The ON/OFF decal, see figure 4, indicates the loca-
tion of the ON/OFF switch at the back of the balancer.
The circuit breaker reset button is also at this location.
Air Gauge Panel (If equipped)
NEVER exceed tire manufacturer’s recom-
mended air pressure. Tires can explode,
especially if inflated beyond these limits.
Keep hands, arms, and entire body back
from inflating tire. Avoid distraction during
inflation. Check tire pressure frequently to
avoid over inflation. Excessive pressure can
cause tires to explode, causing serious
injury or death to operator or bystander.
Do not lower the hood with the clip-on air
chuck attached to the tire’s valve stem.With
the hood start feature ON, the tire will start
rotation causing damage to the wheel and
balancer and possible personal injury.
As shown, the wheel balancer is equipped with the
capability to adjust the air pressure of the tire. The
INFLATE push button supplies air through the hose
and clip-on air chuck located at the wheel guard.When
the chuck is attached to the valve stem, air pressure is
indicated on the gauge. Excess pressure can be
reduced using the MANUALTIRE BLEED VALVE. See
figure 4.
