Baseline 225 Manual - Balancing Motorcycle Wheel

Attaching balancing weights
1. inside wall
Turn the wheel until the central position indicator segment lights up.
Attach the balancing weight shown in the 12 o‟clock position. If the program ALU 1P is
running, place the weight at the exact position of the plane chosen when measuring the wheel
data. Pic.8b shows the correct position of the weight with respect to the end of the gauge.
2. outside wall
Position the balancing weight shown inside the mobile gauge spring (D. pic.8a), making sure
that it is centered with the adhesive part outwards.
Remove the protective paper from the adhesive strip.
Turn the wheel until the central position indicator segment lights up.
Position the mobile gauge on the right side of the vehicle body using the special attachments (1,
pic.8c)
If necessary, push the sliding arm towards the rim until the spring (situated at the end of the arm)
rests against the rim itself.
Press the button E (pic.8a) to make the weight adhere to the rim which will therefore be
correctly fixed in the 9 o‟clock rather than the usual 12 o‟clock position.
Remove the mobile gauge from its case, taking care not to change the setting of the moving
parts. This way it can be used for attaching weights to identical wheels.
Perform a test spin so as to check balancing accuracy.
Balancing motorcycle wheel
(Motorcycle Adapter is required)
Motorcycle wheels can be statically balanced (following the steps outlined in the section on Static
Balancing). If you want, you can divide the weight into two equal parts and place a weight on each
side of the wheel.
If the WIDTH of the tire (over 3 inches) is such as to generate considerable unbalance which cannot
be eliminated with static balancing, it may be worthwhile doing a dynamic balancing (on both sides).
Press the keys until the LED for DM balancing lights.
Press
to confirm your choice.
Mount the wheel on the shaft using the specific flange.
ATTENTION: for good results mount the wheel on the flange so that there is no slippage when
the wheel is spun or braked since this will give inconsistent results.
Install the extension (pic.9) on the distance arm.
Input the wheel data as described previously.
Balance the wheel following all the steps described under the section on Standard Balancing.
