- Page 11 Automatic Gauge Calibration The automatic wheel gauge has been pre-calibrated at the factory and is ready to use. Under normal circumstances, it is not necessary for the operator to perform any additional calibration procedure. If the balancer has been handled roughly during shipping, or if repairs have been made to the gauge assembly, the automatic wheel gauge may need to be recalibrated.
- Page 12 STEP 7: Press “ENTER” STEP 8: The display will read “A-0 0”. Set the gauge to the “0mm” (fully closed) position as shown. While the gauge is held at the “0mm” position, press “ENTER” to save the setting in the balancer’s memory. STEP 9: The display will read “A-t 200”.
- Page 13 STEP 12: The display will read “d-t 200”. Using a metric ruler, measure “200mm” (20cm) directly up (vertically) from the top of the balancer’s main shaft as shown. STEP 13: Position the gauge so that its tip is lined up exactly with the “200mm” (20cm) measurement.
