Wheel Data Entry

Before a wheel can be balanced, the size of the wheel must be entered into the computer. The user enters the

data either automatically or manually.

Wheel Offset - A

This is the distance between the edge of the balancer and the inner

edge of the wheel.

1.

For Automatic Entry -

Pull the distance gauge out from the side

of the balancer. Rotate it until the handle end of the gauge contacts

the inner wheel flange. Hold the gauge against the wheel until the bal-

ancer BEEPS to indicate it has accepted the measurement, which is

displayed above the wheel offset key.

Note:

When  entering  A  data  automatically,  D  (wheel  diameter)  is

also determined and entered.

2.

For Manual Entry -

Press the wheel offset key. Pull the distance

gauge out in the same manner as outlined for automatic entry. Hold

the gauge against the wheel flange and read the measurement on the

gauge. Use the keypad to enter the measurement. For example, if the

last large number (inch indicator) visible is 6, and the last small num-

ber (fraction of an inch) visible is 4, press 6 then 4 on the keypad to

enter 6.4 inches.

Wheel Width - W

This is the width of the wheel measured with the calipers at the rim

flanges.

1.

Press the wheel width key. If offset and diameter are entered

automatically on the 1000D, the balancer will activate the width key

after the acceptance BEEP. 

2.

Open the calipers wide enough to reach around the tire. Close

the calipers so both tips contact the rim flanges. Read the rim width

on the calipers.

3.

Enter the measurement using the keypad. It is now shown in the

display above the wheel width key.

Wheel Diameter - D

This is the diameter of the wheel at the weight location.
Automatic diameter entry reads to 3 decimal places internally and

rounds to 0.10-inch values. It is not necessary to convert metric diam-

eter measurements to inches. For manual entry, enter 15.4 for 390

metric wheels, and 15.7 for 400 wheels. The displayed value repre-

sents the diameter for weight placement and is not necessarily rep-

resentative of the actual wheel diameter. A 14-inch wheel may display

13.6 to 14.3 depending on rim lip configuration and the offset used by

the computer.

1.

For Automatic  Entry  -

If  the  wheel  offset  measurement  was

entered automatically, the 1000D has also calculated and entered the

wheel diameter and displayed it above the wheel diameter key.

2.

For Manual Entry -

Press the wheel diameter key. Locate the

tire size on the tire sidewall and determine the wheel diameter. Use

the keypad to enter the measurement. It is now displayed above the

wheel diameter key. The computer calculates the actual weight place-

ment diameter.
