0 INSTRUCTIONS
Any damage caused by failure to follow the instructions in this manual or improper
machine use shall relieve SPACE s.r.l. of all liability.
0.1 Preliminary safety information
Before starting the machine:
•Read the instructions and the entire manual before using or working on the wheel
balancer. This manual represents an integral part of the product and is intended to
inform the user on how to use the wheel balancer model ER200, ER220, ER150,
ER160 and ER165. Look after the manual for the entire life of the machine. Keep it in
an easy to access place and refer to it every time the need arises. All machine
operators must be able to read the manual.
•Make sure the power supply is in conformity with the specifications shown on the
plate.
•Make sure the machine is properly positioned on the floor.
•Suitably position the machine power cables.
On starting the machine:
•Remove any foreign bodies from the tyre before spinning the wheel.
•Make sure the counterweights are fitted properly before spinning the wheel again.
In emergency conditions and before performing any maintenance:
•Isolate the machine from any power sources by means of the machine master switch.
Work environment and machine cleaning:
•The work environment must be kept clean and dry and must not be exposed to
atmospheric agents. It must also be well lit.
•Do not clean the machine using strong jets of water and compressed air.
•To clean plastic panels or tops, use alcohol (always avoid liquids containing solvents).
SPACE s.r.l. shall be entitled to make any changes to the models described in this manual a
t
any time for reasons of a technical and commercial nature

1 INTENDED USE
For models ER220, ER160 and ER165, after manually entering rim data (diameter,
distance and width) and having started wheel spin, the stop procedure becomes
automatic until the required weight is found.
Wheel spin with wheel balancer mod. ER200 and ER150 is on the other hand manual,
consequently stop is also manual by means of the pedal provided.
Numerous reasons exist for wheel unbalance, but this is usually caused by a non-
symmetric distribution of the rim fabrication materials, above all of the tyre with respect
to the rotation axis and equatorial plane of the wheel, to imperfect mutual rim-tyre
positioning and to incorrect wheel centring on the hub.
The purpose of this equipment is to cancel out, or at least reduce to within acceptable
limits, the vibrations of the wheel that cause driving problems and damage mechanical
parts. The equipment is suitable for all types of vehicle wheels and light commercial
vehicles.
This aim can be achieved by fitting counterweights of suitable size and in specific
positions to wheels that are not correctly balanced.
A wheel can be considered completely balanced only once it is dynamically balanced, as
this also ensures dynamic balancing.
The specifications are indicated in the "TECHNICAL DETAILS" paragraph (para. 3.4 on
page 7). As well as standard procedures, 4 options exist for light alloy wheels and the
ALU/Special function, which enables the two counterweights to be fitted in the most
appropriate positions.
Counterweight positioning is also reduced to a simple procedure. If, when balancing
spokes alloy wheels, the external weight becomes visible, a special procedure exists
(weights hidden behind spokes mode), which splits the weight in two and positions these
behind two spokes. Autotest, auto-calibration and guided calibration of the measuring
heads make it possible to always work with perfectly functional machines.

4 TRANSPORT AND INSTALLATION
4.1 Transport and unpacking
The machine is supplied packed in a box fastened to a pallet to facilitate
transport. To transport the machine to the point where it is to be installed, use a
lifting and transport mechanism such as a fork-lift truck or lift with forks.
The lifting device must have a lifting capacity equal at least to the weight of the
packed machine. During transport, prevent the lifted machine from swinging.
The machine must be stored in its packaging, in a dry and ventilated
environment (with a temperature between -25° +55°C).
Never overturn or position the packaging horizontally. The pallet must always
rest on a flat and solid surface. Do not stack other packages on top of the
packaging. Always position so the instructions can be easily read.
DURING UNPACKING, ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES TO PREVENT ANY INJURY
CAUSED BY CONTACT WITH PACKAGING MATERIAL (NAILS, ETC.).
Make sure you have received all standard parts as previously listed.
The packaging material (plastic bags, polystyrene, nails, screws, wood, etc.) must
be collected up and disposed of through authorised channels, except for the
pallet, which could be used again for subsequent machine handling.
4.2 Installation
Position the wheel balancer where this is to be used. Never lift the machine by
means of the shaft.
Install the machine in a dry, covered and well-lit place, possibly closed or
protected against the elements. Before positioning the machine, make sure the
place chosen complies with applicable safety regulations and check the
minimum distances from walls or other obstacles (see Figure 1).
The position must be such as to allow the operator to see the area around the
machine. During operation in fact, the operator must make sure there is no one
or nothing in the vicinity of the machine that could represent a hazard.
The characteristics of the machine operating environment must be maintained
within the following limits:
- temperature: 0° + 45° C ; relative humidity: 30 ÷ 90 % (without dew);
The wheel balancer can operate on any solid and flat surface.
Make sure the 4 support points are resting properly on the floor and if necessary
shim.
The machine is best secured to the floor at the 4 above anchor points (Figure 1).
Anchoring is mandatory if wheels weighing more than 30 kg are used; use floor
anchors for M8 x 80 mm screws.
• drill 4 x 10 mm dia. holes opposite the holes in the page;
• fit the anchors and install the machine so this coincides with the holes made
and then tighten the screws (torque wrench setting: about 22 Nm).

5 FITTING THE WHEEL ON THE SHAFT
To achieve perfect balancing, the wheel must be carefully and properly fitted on the shaft.
Imperfect centring will inevitably cause unbalances.
Most important is that original cones and accessories are used. made specifically for
use on the wheel balancer.
Wheel fitting using the cones provided is illustrated below.
For alternative fittings, using optional accessories, refer to the special instructions provided
separately.
1. Remove any type of
foreign body from the
wheel: already-existing
weights, stones and
mud, and make sure
the shaft and the rim
centring area are clean
before fitting the wheel
on the shaft.
2. Carefully choose the cone
most suitable for the wheel to
be balanced. These
accessories must be
selected according to the
shape of the rim.
Carefully position the wheel
using the cone (otherwise
this could seize) until this
rests against the support
flange.
3. Fit the wheel
with the inner
side of the rim
towards the
wheel balancer
and against the
cone.
STANDARD WHEEL
4. Fit the protection
casing in the
locknut and
fasten against the
wheel.
Some aluminium wheels, with very high centring, must be fitted with the cone outside the
wheel.
1. Clean the shaft before
fitting the wheel.
2. Fit the wheel with the
outside of the rim
towards the wheel
balancer, until the wheel
is up against the support
flange.
3. Fit the cone with
the narrowest
part turned
towards the
wheel
4. Fit the grip-ring in the
locknut and secure
the cone.

7 WHEEL BALANCING
7.1 Determination of wheel dimensions
7.1.1 Manual setting of wheel dimensions for dynamic balancing and ALU 1, 2, 3, 4
functions
SPACE wheel balancers feature a manual gauge and a graduated scale for determining wheel
dimensions (Figure 7 and Figure 8).
The rim distance dimension is always set with "mm" unit of measurement.
The width and diameter dimensions on the other hand can be set in "inches" or "mm". The
examples shown in this manual show measurements in "inches". To change the unit of
measurement from "inches" to "mm", see chap. 11 on page 34.

ICON KEY DESCRIPTION
RED (F1) Return to display previous page
YELLOW (F2) Decrease wheel dimension values
CENTRE Select and confirm the value to be set
BLUE (F3) Increase wheel dimension values
GREEN (F4) Perform spin
Press centre key ( ) to select the value to be set.
The display screen will show the selected value on black background and on the right the
same value in large characters (Figure 6).
Manually set the width. Generally speaking, the nominal width is indicated on the rim, but it
is always a good idea to position the graduated scale on the inner and outer side of the wheel
as shown in Figure 7 and determine the measurement to be set.
To enter the wheel width, the operator must select the “PLUS” or “MINUS” key
until the desired width is achieved.

7.2 User management
To select user management, select the following key on the presentation page (para. 6 on
page 13).
SPACE wheel balancers can be used by 4 different users at the same time, by selecting the
above indicated key several times, until the desired user is reached.
When the user key is pressed, the current user number appears on the display screen (U1,
U2, U3 and U4 in car mode or M1, M2, M3 and M4 in motorcycle mode).
The system stores the data relating to the last performed spin according to the different
operators. The desired user can be called every time the program displays the specific key.
The measurements stored for each user are lost when the machine is switched off.
User management is valid for any wheel balancer function.
IMPORTANT: To enable or disable the "User Control" function, see para. 11(Figure 44 on page
35). Once this function has been disengaged by pressing the "User key F3" on the
presentation page (para. 6 on page 13) on the top left of the monitor, the only used user
appears “U” in car mode or “M” in motorcycle mode.
