!CAUTION The machine must be secured to the floor. Using four holes in the base and anchor bolts provided.
2.4 Electrical Hookup
!CAUTION Failure to follow these instructions can results in damage to unit or create an electrical hazard and will
void warranty.
2.4.1 Electrical hookup is to be provided by a qualified electrician.
2.4.2 A fusible wall-mounted switchbox is required at theinstallation site. This switch should provide on-off control and overload
protection for your wheel balanceronly.Theswitchboxshould befused with time-delayfuse(s) in accordancewith thepower
rating specified on your wheel balancer.
2.4.3 Electrical connection of the machine should be by plug connectors.
2.4.4 The balancer must be effectively connected to ground. The electric cord is regularly provided with a ground terminal.
2.4.5 Make sure that Power Rate Specifications for your wheel balancer (refer to nameplate on the wheel balancer) comply with
those provided by the external power source.
!CAUTION After electrical hookup has been performed unit is ready tooperate. Always observe pertinent safety
precautions when operating the unit (see Appendix tables for an overview of relevant Safety
requirement).
The unit is operated with 12V battery,

6 HOW TO OPTIMIZE UNBALANCE OF THE WHEEL (Option)
6.1 Measure the unbalance of the rim only. Once the measurement of rim unbalance is calculated, press <FUNC> to enter
optimization function.
Mount the tyre on the rim. After mounting
the tyre, the wheel must be put on the
shaft in the same position as before.
Hand spin the wheel
Left display (20 in example) indicates
present static unbalance. Right display
(55% in example) indicates possible
reduction of weight in %.
Turn the wheel until SIGN 1 is displayed.
Mark the rim (12 o’clock).
Turn the wheel until SIGN 2 is displayed.
Mark the tyre (12 o’clock).
Put the two marks together to optimize
unbalance.
6.2 After pressing <SET>, the program return to the measurement of unbalance mode, where an indication of the residual
unbalance values will be given.
