5. Keep the Distance/Diameter sensor blocked at this distance, then, rotate it until the adhesive weight 

sticks on the rim. The sensor’s contact point on the rim will assume an intermediate position between 

12 o’clock and 6 o’clock depending on the diameter of the rim. See also table T3.3;

6. Bring the Distance/Diameter sensor back in the rest position. The indications on the left and right

display will be exchanged to indicate the search for the external balancing plane;

7.  Release the wheel and repeat steps 2 to 6 for the external weight;

8.  Run a balancing test launch.

If the balancing of an identical wheel must be performed, you can skip the balancing plane acquisition 

phase and carry on directly with the balancing launch and, subsequently, with the search of the balancing 

planes. The balancing planes used for calculation will be those previously stored.

Note:

I

f you set the Static imbalance display, the sole balancing weight must always be applied in the 6 o’clock 

posi-tion at any point along the section of the rim. The balancing planes search phase described in chapter 

3.3.5.1 should therefore not be run.

3.3.6 Use of the ALS1 or ALS2 Program Types without automatic acquisition

When a machine is not equipped with the automatic acquisition system by means of the Distance/Diameter 

sensor, or when the sensor itself has been disabled, you can still use the special ALS1 or ALS2 programs.

Since it is not possible to acquire the two planes automatically by means of the Distance/Diameter sensor, 
you must manually enter the values of the two pairs of dimensions 

di1/da1

 and 

di2/da2

 as shown in 

chapter 3.3.2

After the 

start

, the angular position of the balancing weights are given in table T3.3.

3.3.7 Use of the ALS1 or ALS2 Program Types without preliminary acquisition 

of the balancing planes

It is possible to run a launch when any Program Type, other than ALS1 or ALS2, is enabled and then 

selecting the ALS1 or ALS2 Program Type. The machine will recalculate the imbalance data according to 

the new Program Type selected.

In this case, however, the imbalance values displayed are obtained by using the balancing planes (i.e. the two 

di1/da1

 and 

di2/da2

) dimension pairs previously acquired or, lacking these, the default balancing planes.
