4. Tire Balance operation
4.1 After the power is turned on and the device code is displayed, the
display window displays "8.0 5.7 14.0", which proves that the
machine is normal.
4.2 Installation of Wheels
(1) preparation before the test: check and remove the dust, soil and
tread of the tire whether there are metal, stone and other foreign
bodies; Check whether the tire pressure is in line with the specified
value; Check whether the positioning surface and mounting hole of
the rim are deformed, check whether there are foreign bodies in the
tire; Remove the original balance block.
(2) There are three types of wheel installation, including positive
positioning, reverse positioning and additional flanges for large and
medium tires. A positioning method can be selected arbitrarily
according to the actual situation.
4.2.1 forward positioning
Spindle - Wheels (rim mounting face
inwards)- Fit cone (small head
inwards)- Wheels - Quick nut
forward positioning is a common positioning
method, the operation is simple and fast, mainly suitable for
ordinary steel ring and thin aluminum alloy ring, this
positioning is suitable for the steel ring deformation is
small。

4.2.2 Reverse p o s i ti o n i n g
Spindle - spring - fit cone (big head inward)- wheel - quick nut
4.2.3 Special flange positioning
Fix the large flange to the matcher - wheel - large cone - quick nut
4.3 Size of the input
4.3.1 Input steps:
ⅠFirst enter the size "a"
This positioning method is suitable for the
wheel center hole Φ148 below the tire
installation.
Note: the choice of cone should be adapted to the center hole of the rim, and pay
attention to its direction, otherwise it will cause inaccurate measurement.
When the wheel outside deformation is large,
the reverse positioning is used to ensure the
accurate positioning of the inner hole and spindle
of the steel ring. It is suitable for steel ring,
especially for measuring thick aluminum alloy
ring.
The distance measuring ruler of the machine itself is used to
measure the distance between the body of the balancing machine
and the rim of the inner edge "A" value

Note: If the radar width measuring device is available, the machine will
automatically measure the width B value of the tire at the same time as the
protective cover is lowered, without the need to manually input the size
"B".

↑, D ↓to change.
Note: The default value DE = 0.8dL. When the dL is changed, DE returns to the
default value. When the system calculates the center of gravity of the balance
block and the distance of the balancing machine, it will automatically consider
the balance block according to 14mm.

4.4.2 Special shape rim balancing operation (ALU-S balancing mode)
Press < ALU > key to select "S" balance mode (corresponding indicator light is
on), enter rim data by "S" balance mode, and start the machine for unbalance
calculation. After the machine balance is completed and the unbalance is
displayed:
A. Rotate the tire slowly, and fix the tire when the left position indicating diode is
Static balance static-. Static balance
correction is performed on the tire.
Dynamic Balancing - A balancing block is
sandwiched between both sides of the rim for
steel and aluminum alloy rims.
ALU2- The inner side is clamped with the balance
block, and the outer side is adhered to the balance block
(the position of the outer balance block is shown in the
figure).

all bright and there is buzzing sound (it will be automatically locked when there
is electromagnetic device), clamp the lead block with the same inner imbalance
value on the ruler fixture, pull the ruler until there is buzzing sound and it shows
[***][O--][***], it means that it has reached the horizontal position attached to
the inner lead block. At this time the ruler will be close to the hub, so that the
lead firmly stuck on the hub.
B. Rotate the tire slowly, and fix the tire when the position indicator diode on the
right side is all bright and there is beep (it will automatically lock when there is
electromagnetic device). Clamp the lead block with the same unbalanced value
on the outside side on the ruler clamp, pull the ruler until there is beep and
display [***][--O][***], it means that it has reached the horizontal position
attached to the outside lead block. At this time the ruler will be close to the hub,
so that the lead firmly stuck on the hub.
C, the above operation is in the absence of the laser pointer lead operation, if
there is under the condition of the laser pointer, where there are lead balance
mode, after the complete balance not calculate, slowly turn the tires to the
unbalanced position, tire lock, a laser designator light up automatically, then
match the size of the lead weights on the laser indicating location.
4.4.3 Unbalanced decomposition

Decomposition is used on the outer side of the static balance or ALU-S
balancing mode and can be used to covertly attach the balancing block to the rim
behind the spokes. Press < START > to complete the ALU-S balance calculation
of the tire. When the imbalance value is displayed:
4.4.3.1 Number of input wheel frames
Enter any size, press < D > + < OPT > key
Press < ↑> or < ↓> to set the number of wheels (3-12).
Press < D > + < OPT > to confirm.
4.4.3.2 Unbalance of decomposition
Make any bar at 12 o 'clock and press < ALU > to decompose.
The center display displays "SPL".
Rotate the tire slowly until an imbalance value appears on the right display. At
this time, if there is a laser device, the corresponding weight of lead block is
attached behind the spokes in the laser indicated position, otherwise, the

corresponding weight of lead block is attached behind the spokes by pulling the
ruler.
Rotate the tire slowly again until the second unbalance value appears on the
middle display screen. At this time, stick the lead block with the corresponding
weight in the way above, and the tire is balanced.
Note: At this point, press < FINE > to see that the balance precision is 1g. To
return to the normal unbalance value display, press < START > or < C >.

4.6 Unbalance optimization
It is recommended to run this program when the unbalance value shows more
than 30 g, which can reduce the unbalance of
the tire and add the balance block when
reducing the balance.
4.6.1Normal balancing operation has been performed and the wheel has rotated
once.
If the unbalance value is more than 30G, the display screen "OPT" (displays in
the center when doing dynamic balancing)

lights are all on. Put a 10g lead block just above
the outer rim, as shown in the figure:

Display: [] [180] Display 180°means that the rim and the tire should rotate 180°
each other. Make a mark on the same position
of the taper plate and the rim hole, so that the
rim can be installed back to the same position.
Use the tire remover to rotate the tire 180°on
the rim and reinstall the tire back to the rim.
Display: [82] [35] Left display - shows the percentage of unbalance value that
can be reduced by the current wheel position (%
symbol is shown as).
Middle display - current unbalance value, which can be reduced by rotating the
tire around the rim.
An imbalance value of 35g in the example is reduced by 82%, leaving only
about 6g unbalance after running the program.
[82] [35] A mark is made at the top of the tire (12 o 'clock position) when the
small light in the middle of the unbalance
indicator lights on both sides of the tire is
turned on at the same time.
[82] [35] When the tire is rotated again until the small lights on both sides of the
unbalance indicator light are on at the same time, make a mark at the top
of the rim (12 o 'clock). Remove the wheel and use a tire splitter to
overlap the tire with the rim mark.

5.5 Modify the memory parameters of the local computer
If the program is lost due to operation error or other reasons, you can make the
following adjustments to make the computer work again. Correct setting of
machine parameters can ensure its balance accuracy.
Fault phenomenon: self - calibration after the phase is not accurate or large
numerical deviation.
The correction method is as follows:
2. After pressing the distance dimension A [↓], A [↑] and F keys continuously, the display
window displays "Re" and "5", indicating unbalance and below 5 grams display 0. Can press
the B button [↓], B button [↑], adjust to 10 grams, 20 grams and 50 grams.
Note: When the computer board, phase sensor or pressure sensor is replaced,
it must be self-calibrated again. When the computer board is replaced, its
parameters should be set according to the parameter values marked in the
machine or the parameters of the original board. After modification, it must
be self-calibrated again.
