1. ► 1 - GENERAL SAFETY REGULATIONS
The machine should only be used by authorized and suitably trained personnel. ▪
Do not use the machine for purposes other than those specifi ed in this manual. ▪
The machine should not be modifi ed in any way except for those modifi cations explicitly carried out by ▪
specialised personnel.
Never remove the safety dehyvices. Any work on the machine should only be carried out by specialised ▪
personnel.
Carefully clean the coupling surfaces before performing any operation. ▪
Avoid using strong jets of compressed air for cleaning. ▪
Use alcohol to clean the plastic panel or shelves (AVOID LIQUIDS CONTAINING SOLVENTS). ▪
Before starting the wheel balancing cycle, make sure that the wheel is securely locked on the adapter. ▪
The machine operator should avoid wearing clothes with fl apping edges. Make sure that unauthorized ▪
personnel do not approach the machine during the work cycle.
Avoid placing objects inside the cabinet as they could impair the correct operation of the machine. ▪
1.1.1 - STANDARD SAFETY DEVICES
►
Low rotation speed. ▪
STOP push button for stopping the wheel under emergency conditions. ▪
The safety guard (option) of high impact plastic is with shape and size designed to prevent risk of ▪
counterweights from fl ying out in any direction except towards the fl oor.
A microswitch prevents starting the machine if the guard is not lowered and stops the wheel whenever ▪
the guard is raised.
Protection system on LIFT control. ▪
1.2 - FIELD OF APPLICATION ►
The machine is designed for balancing wheels of cars and motor vehicles weighing up to 250 kg. It can be operated
in the temperature range of 0° to + 45°C.

2 - HANDLING AND LIFTING
TO LIFT THE MACHINE, LEVER ONLY ON THE BASE WHERE THE 3 SUPPORT POINTS ARE LOCATED.
N
EVER, UNDER ANY CIRCUSTANCE, APPLY FORCE TO OTHER POINTS SUCH AS THE SPINDLE, HEAD, OR ACCESSORY SHELF.
Check that the balancing machine touches the fl oor at the three support points. •
It functions properly without having to fasten it to the fl oor with wheels weighing up to 160 kg; for heavier •
wheels, fasten it at the points indicated.
Options: Front wheel translation KIT
Ground securing plate KIT

3.1 - ELECTRICAL CONNECTION ►
T
HE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION MUST BE MADE BY SPECIALIZED PERSONNEL. CONNECTION TO THE SINGLE PHASE MAINS MUST
BE MADE BETWEEN PHASE AND NEUTRAL, AND NEVER, UNDERANY CIRCUMSTANCES, BETWEEN PHASE AND EARTH (GROUND).
E
FFICIENT EARTHING (GROUNDING) IS ESSENTIAL FOR CORRECT MACHINE OPERATION. THE MANUFACTURER DECLINES
RESPONSIBILITY AND WARRANTY IN THE EVENT OF INCORRECT CONNECTION.
ALL
Before connecting the machine to the mains through relative cable, check that the mains voltage matches the one
shown on the nameplate at the back of the balancing machine. Rating of the electrical connection should be on the
basis of the machine electrical power consumption (see nameplate).
The machine mains supply cable should be fi tted with a plug conforming to current regulations. ▪
It is recommended to provide the machine with its own electrical connection through a slow acting safety switch ▪
rated at 4 A (230 V) or 10 A (115 V).
When connection is made directly to the main control panel without using any plug, it is advisable to padlock the ▪
main switch of the balancing machine in order to limit its use to authorized personnel only.
3.2 - PNEUMATIC CONNECTION ►
The machine must be connected to the compressed air supply and must not be used if the pressure is below 5 kg/
cm2 (5 bar; 72 PSI; 0.5 MPa). The maximum input pressure is limited to 10 kg/cm2 (~10 Bar; ~145 PSI; ~1 MPa).
The spinning and braking device is calibrated at the factory and cannot be modifi ed.
3.3 - ADAPTER MOUNTING ►
The wheel balancer is supplied complete with cone ►
type adapter for fastening wheels with central bore.
The threaded terminal is fi tted according to the dra
wing; it can be removed to fi t optional adapters.
It can be removed to fi t optional adapters.
3. ► 4 - WHEEL MOUNTING
The wheels should be fastened with one of the numerous adapters manufactured by the manufacturer (see enclosed
brochures). Incorrect centering inevitably causes unbalance.
3.5 - WHEEL GUARD ASSEMBLY AN ► D ADJUSTMENT (option)
Fasten the components to the base as illustrated in the specifi c exploded drawing1.
The positions of these guards can be adjusted using the special screws accessed from inside the main support2.
With th3. e guard closed check that the microswitch prod has slipped into place on the ring; to this end, adjust the
angular position of the control ring if necessary.
3.6 - LIFT ►
The function of the lift is to make it easier to mount the wheel on the balancer spindle with the minimum manual effort.
The pneumatic circuit of the machine has been designed to give the lift considerable fl exibility of movement in any
position along its travel. The lift is driven with the control pedal.
DURING LIFT MOVEMENT, KEEP AWAY FROM ITS RANGE OF ACTION.
