16.4.3 Search of the balancing planes
The purpose of the balancing planes research is to find the balancing planes which were previously selected by the operator in
order to apply the balancing weights.
Proceed as follows:
1.
Apply the weight identified on the left screen (internal weight);
2.
Manually rotate the wheel until all the internal imbalance position leds light up (see picture F13.1). Block the wheel in this
position using the pedal brake or electromagnetic brake (if present);
3.
Slowly extract the sensor until you hear the continuous beep indicating that the internal balancing plane has been
reached. The left display helps the operator in this operation by indicating the direction in which the sensor must be
moved. See pictures F16.12, F16.13 and F16.14;
NOTE 1: the left display will be switched off if the Program Type selected is ALS1 because the balancing weight must be
always placed on the rim internal plane.
NOTE 2: the picture F16.14 will be not displayed and the continuous beep will be not heard if the tyre will be not placed in
the correct position as shown in paragraph 2).
Picture F16.12: Search for the balancing planes: the left display indicates to pull forward the sensor gauge (move to the right) to
find the precise internal position of the balancing planes
Picture F16.13: Search for the balancing planes: the left display tells you to move the sensor back (move to the left) to find the
exact position of the internal balancing plane
Picture F16.14: Search for the balancing planes: the left display tells you that the sensor is on the internal balancing plane exactly
4.
Block the Distance/Diameter sensor at this distance, then, rotate it until the adhesive weight sticks on the rim. The sensor
contact point will be a midway position between 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock, depending on the rim diameter. See also table
T16.6;
5.
Unlock the wheel and repeat steps 2 to 6 for the external weight. This time extract the Distance/Diameter sensor until
the right display shows the same message as described in pictures F16.13, F16.14 and F16.15;
6.
Perform a test wheel spin for the balancing.
If you have to balance an identical wheel, it is possible to skip the data acquisition of the balancing planes and perform
immediately with the balancing spin and then with the search for balancing planes. The balancing planes used for the
calculation will be the same as stored before by the machine.
16.4.4 Use of the ALS1 or ALS2 program types without automatic acquisition
When a machine is not equipped with the automatic acquisition system by Distance/Diameter sensor or when the sensor itself has
been disabled, you can still use the ALS1 or ALS2 special programs.
