2.Product Description
2.1 Authorised intended use
The BikeBoss is a balancing stand for motorbike wheels and must only
be installed at dry locations that are protected against
dripping water.
The BikeBoss has been developed and built in order to balance motorbike
wheels statically and / or dynamically
(from 3 inch wheel width).

4.1 Selection menu for the settings
In the start menu, press the button F3.
(Fig. 3)
On the screen, in the setup menu, the
selection is again by using the function
buttons.
Button F1: Set the unit
Selection as to whether measurement
should be in Gram [g] or Ounces [oz].
Changing between the units is achieved by
rotating and pressing the rotary knob. The
active selection is indicated by enlarged script.
The display automatically changes to the
selection for the resolution of the measurement
result to be indicated on the display.
The display resolution is selected by rotating and
pressing the rotary knob.
The table shows the indicated values [Gram] on
the display for 5g and 1g.
Example:
If the imbalance is 17 grams, the
display indicates 5g = 15g for the
selected resolution, for the
resolution 1g = 17g.
Only for 1g (1/16 oz) indication:
If the display resolution was set to 1g
(1/16 oz), the value for the remaining value
suppression is subsequently selected
(rotating and pressing the rotary knob)
Gram = 1 to 5
Ounces = 1/4 - 1/8 - 1/16
This means that if the result of the measurement is
smaller/equal to the remaining value selected, “0” is
indicated on the display.

5.Preparation for Mounting the Wheel on the BikeBoss
5.1 Clamping the motorbike wheel on the BikeBoss
Selection of the correct mounting shaft
There are two different mounting shafts for the BikeBoss.
Shaft Ø 15 mm
Shaft Ø 19.05 mm (3/4“)
The suitable shaft diameter depends on the mounting holes of the motorbike wheel
(refer to the list in the Appendix).
Preparation for mounting the wheel.
First, select the suitable clamping sleeve for
the mounting shaft.
(Fig. 14)
It must be
suitable for the diameter of the shaft.
(Fig. 13)
Two clamping sleeves are required
for each shaft.
One of the sleeves is inserted into the clamp
using the 3-Arm rotary handle.
(Fig. 15)
The sleeves can only be inserted
when the bar on the clamp is open.
To firmly seat the sleeve, it is rotated until the
elongated hole butts against the stop on the
screw on the clamp.
(Fig. 16)
(Fig. 13)
(Fig. 14)
(Fig. 15)
(Fig. 16)

Balancing Stand BikeBoss
HAWEKA - BikeBoss
15
The second sleeve is inserted into the clamp by the thrust washer and also locked.
(Fig. 17)
To preset, the thrust washer is pushed by the
clamp to the rear third of the mounting shaft
and locked by moving down the bar on the
clamp onto the shaft.
(Fig. 18)
Motorbike wheels with ball bearings can
either be directly put onto the mounting shaft,
or with the suitable locating sleeves.
L if the internal diameter of the
bearing in the wheel is greater than
the diameter of the mounting shaft.

Depending on the vehicle manufacturer,
motorbike wheels with single arm rocker
attachment, without bearing, require a
special locating unit so that the wheel can be
correctly mounted on the BikeBoss.
Refer to the overview of the
locating device for single arm
rockers.
The suitable locating disc is inserted on the
side of the contact surface.
(Fig. 20)
The telescopic rod is suited to connect the
shaft and locating disc to the wheel on the
BikeBoss at a comfortable working height.
(Fig. 21)
Rim for single arm rocker
Insert the suitable locating disc
(Fig. 20)

For motorbike wheels with a disc brake,
alignment of the wheel must be selected so
that the disc brake is aligned to the rubber
insert of the pressure plate. (Fig. 22)
Fundamentally, the most sensitive
side of the wheel butts against the
rubber insert of the pressure plate.
Subsequently, using the 3-Arm rotary
handle, push the clamp tightly onto the
locating disc and close the bar on the
clamp. (Fig. 23)
For an accurate measurement, it is
important that the wheel is attached to
the shaft so that the elements cannot
move against one another during
acceleration and slowing down.
In order to clamp the wheel on the
mounting shaft, the 3-Arm rotary handle is
rotated until the wheel rests on the rubber
and is connected to the locating disc.
(Fig. 24)
Do not use force!
The thread on the 3-Arm rotary
handle is visible.
Inserting the wheel shaft unit:
Before the unit is placed in the BikeBoss,
the shaft lowering lever must be put to the
top position.

(Fig. 23)

(Fig. 22)

The unit is now inserted into both bearing
blocks of the BikeBoss.
The fixed ball bearing on the
shaft must be located on the
right side of the BikeBoss.
(Fig. 26)
The bearing blocks in the
BikeBoss must be clean.
On the left side, the shaft rests on the
shaft lowering lever. Thus, the floating
ball bearing can be placed on the end of
the shaft in the bearing block.
(Fig. 27)
Subsequently, the shaft is lowered into
the bearing block using the shaft
lowering lever.

6.Carrying Out a Measurement
6.1 Record the setting values
The position of the measuring tape is set on
the BikeBoss for the wheel size to be
measured.
(Here in the example 17 inch,
Fig. 29
)
Repeat this procedure on the other side of
the BikeBoss.
(Fig. 30)
For the distance measurement, the left
measuring tape is routed to the planned
bonding position of the compensation weight
on the rim.
The value for the left side is noted.
(Here in the example 215 mm,
Fig. 31
)
Repeat this procedure on the other side of
the wheel.
The value for the right side is noted.
(Here in the example 165 mm,
Fig. 32
)

6.2 Enter the setting values
The BikeBoss is switched on and the main
menu appears on the display.
Changing between the selection is
achieved by rotating and pressing the
rotary knob. The active selection is
indicated by enlarged script.
Select “Distance” and press the rotary
knob.
The left distance is set first, by rotating
and pressing the rotary knob. The value is
accepted by rotating and pressing the
rotary knob and automatically changed to
the input “right”.
The selection “right” is indicated by enlarged
script.
The input for the distance on the right
is made.
(Fig. 36)
After confirming the distance values,
the main menu appears.
Subsequently, the rim diameter is selected
by rotating and pressing the rotary knob.
A rim diameter of 17.5 inches is
specified as a standard value.
Input is also carried out using the rotary
knob
