1.2 PURPOSE OF THE MANUAL
This manual, and the installation manual, contains the
instructions required to use the machine safely and carry
out routine maintenance work.
THIS MANUAL IS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE INSTALLATION
WARNING
MANUAL WHICH SHOULD BE CONSULTED CONCERNING STARTING
AND USING THE MACHINE SAFELY.
READ CAREFULLY BEFORE CONTINUING.
1.1 GENERAL
The machine has been constructed in conformity with the
current EC Directives and the technical standards implementing the requirements, as stated in the declaration
of conformity issued by the manufacturer and attached
to the manual.
This publication, hereinafter simply referred to as ‘man-
ual’, contains all the information required to safely use
and service the machine referred to in the Declaration of
Conformity.
This appliance, hereinafter is generically referred to as
‘machine’.
The manual addresses operators instructed on the precautions to take in relation to the presence of electric current
and moving devices.
This publication is intended for all ‘users’ who as far as
within their competence need to and/or are obliged to
give instructions to others or operate on the machine
themselves.
These persons can be identified as follows:
- operators directly involved in transporting, storing,
installing, using and servicing the machine from when
it is put on the market until when it is scrapped;
- direct private users.
The original Italian text of this publication constitutes the
only reference to resolve any interpretation controversies
related to the translation into the European Community
languages.
This publication forms an integral part of the machine
and must therefore be kept for future reference until final
dismantling and scrapping of the machine.
Any calibrations, adjustments and extraordinary maintenance operations are not considered in this document as
they may only be performed by the service engineer who
must work on the machine according to the technical and
rated characteristics for which it was built.
Though it is fundamental to read this manual, it cannot
replace skilled technical staff who must be adequately
trained beforehand.
The foreseen use and configurations of the machine are
the only ones allowed by the manufacturer; do not attempt
to use the machine in a different way.
Any other use or configuration must be agreed in advance
with the manufacturer in writing and in this case an annex
will be attached to this manual.
For use, the user must also comply with the specific
workplace legislation in force in the country where the
machine is installed.
The manual also refers to laws, directives, etc., that the
user must know and consult in order to accomplish the
goals that the manual sets out to achieve.
1.3 WHERE AND HOW TO KEEP THE
MANUAL
This manual (and relative attachments) must be kept in
a safe and dry place and must always be available for
consultation.
Make a copy and keep it in the archive.
When exchanging information with the manufacturer or
the technical assistance staff authorised by the former,
quote the rating plate information and the serial number
of the machine.
This manual must be kept for the entire lifetime of the
machine, and if necessary (e.g.: damage making all or
some of it illegible, etc.) the user must request another
copy exclusively from the manufacturer, quoting the publication code indicated on the cover.

Use and Maintenance Manual Rev. 11-2010
1.4 MANUAL UPGRADES
This manual is an integral part of the machine and reflects
the state of the art at the moment it was put on the market.
ENGLISH
The publication complies with the directives in force on
that date; the manual cannot be considered inadequate
as a result of regulatory updates or modifications to the
machine.
Any manual upgrades that the manufacturer may see fit to
send to users will become an integral part of the manual
and must be kept together with it.
1.5 COLLABORATION WITH USERS
The manufacturer will be pleased to provide its customers with any further information they may require and will
consider proposals for improving this manual in order to
more fully satisfy the requirements it was written for.
In case of transfer of ownership of the machine,
which must always be accompanied by the use and
maintenance manual, the original user must inform
the manufacturer of the name and address of the
new user in order to allow it to send the new user
any communications and/or updates deemed to be
indispensable.
This publication is the property of the Manufacturer
and may not be fully or partly reproduced without prior
written agreement.
1.6 MANUFACTURER
- always constantly and carefully clean and service the
machine;
- have the machine used by people of proven capacity
and attitude, adequately trained for the purpose.
The manufacturer declines all direct and indirect liability
caused by:
- use of the machine in a different way from that indicated
in this manual
- use of the machine by people who have not read and
fully understood the contents of this manual;
- use in breach of specific regulations in force in the
country of installation;
- modifications made to the machine, software and operating logic, unless authorised by the manufacturer
in writing;
- unauthorised repairs;
- exceptional events.
Transfer of the machine to a third party must also include
this manual; failure to include the manual automatically
invalidates all the rights of the purchaser, including the
terms of warranty, where applicable.
If the machine is transferred to a third party in a country with
a different language from the one written in this manual,
the original user shall provide a faithful translation of this
manual in the language of country in which the machine
will operate.
1.7.1 Terms of warranty
The Manufacturer guarantees the machines it manufacturers against all manufacturing or assembly faults for 12
(twelve) months from the date of collection or delivery.
The machine identification data is indicated on the plate
mounted on the machine.
The plate below is shown for the sake of example.
1.7 MANUFACTURER’S RESPONSIBILITY
AND WARRANTY
In order to make use of the manufacturer’s warranty, the
user must scrupulously observe the precautions contained
in the manual, in particular he must:
- never exceed the limits of use of the machine;
The Manufacturer undertakes to replace or repair any part
which it deems to be faulty free of charge at its factory,
carriage paid.
If a Manufacturer’s repairman (or a person authorised by
the same) is required to work at the user’s facilities, the
relative travel expenses and board and lodging shall be
charged to the user.
The free supply of parts under warranty is always subject
to the faulty part being inspected by the manufacturer (or
a person authorised by the same).
The warranty is not extended following repairs or other
work done to the machine.
The warranty does not cover damage to the machine
deriving from:
- transport;
- neglect;
- improper use and/or use not in compliance with the
instructions in the operating manual
- incorrect electrical connections.

3.1 MACHINE FUNCTION
The ER100-I is a wheel balancing machine for cars, light commercial vehicles, 4-WDs, motorcycles and scooters
that weigh less than 75 kg. It can be operated in a temperature range of 0° to + 45° C.
It can operate only on a flat and non-resilient surface.
Do not mount any wheels other than motorcycle, car or truck wheels on the wheel balancing machine.
Thanks to the new and exclusive VDD (Virtual Direct Drive) system, reliable unbalance measurements can be made in
a short time, almost half the cycle time of other wheel balancing machines in this range.
