This function allows balancing the four wheels of a vehicle, plus the spare wheel if necessary, and obtaining
information on how to mount them in order to reduce to a minimum the vibrations due to the residual ec-
centricity of each wheel.
The TYRE SET function can be enabled or disabled from the MENU; to best use this function, proceed as
follows:
1. Prepare adhesive symbols to identify the wheels.
2. Mount the first wheel, measure the dimensions, balance it and identify it with the number 1.
3. Dismount the wheel and mount the next one, close the guard and balance the wheel without acquiring
the dimensions again.
4. Repeat step 3 for the remaining 3 wheels, plus any spare wheel, each time identifying the wheel with
a progressive number from 2 to 5.
5. Each time the spindle is opened, the wheel balancing machine indicates the best way to mount the
wheels balanced up to that point. On the left-hand side of the screen, a stylized vehicle is displayed
with the four tyres plus the spare wheel; at each spin, the number of the wheel to be mounted in each
position is indicated on each of them (right/left front/rear axle).
6. The procedure can be reset by measuring the dimensions like for a new wheel. If the spindle is incorrectly
opened, the balancing sequence is interrupted and consequently the end result will be incorrect.
