This wheel balancer enables you to balance a variety

of wheel configurations. Read through this section, it
will help you determine which mode and options are
best suited for certain wheel assemblies.

Remember:

As with any balancing procedure, first

remove any weights attached to the wheel, inspect the
tire and wheel, and use the most appropriate balancer
mounting method before beginning.

At the initial screen (see page 3), press the numbered

key that corresponds with the key icon along the bot-
tom of the video display screen for the following
options.

Mode -

any time, press the DYNAMIC option 

, or turn the

balance mode, it may be necessary to finish the bal-
ance cycle first.
