MOUNTING WHEELS

Select the most appropriate mounting method for the wheel
you are balancing. Using the proper method ensures secure
mounting, accurate displays and safe balancer operation. It
also prevents damage to the wheel. On most wheels, the
inner side of the wheel hub usually has the most uniform
surface for wheel balancing. Always center the wheel by the
most uniformly shaped side of the hub to achieve the most
accurate balance.
Regardless of mounting type, always make sure that the
wheel is forced firmly against the arbor faceplate and that
the hub nut engages the threaded arbor for at least four
complete turns. To assist in centering the wheel properly,
rotate the wheel on the arbor while tightening the hub nut.

Rear Cone Mounting

Most original equipment and steel wheels can be mounted
properly using this method. The wheel is centered on a
cone from the inner side of the hub.
1. Place the cone spring on the arbor with the large end
towards the balancer.
2. Select the cone that best fits the center hole in the wheel.
Slide the cone onto the arbor with the large end towards the
spring.
3. Lift the wheel onto the arbor and center it on the cone.
4. Attach the pressure cup to the hub nut and spin the
assembly onto the arbor. Tighten securely.
