IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
1. Eye and face protection recommendations:
“Protective eye and face equipment is required to
be used where there is a reasonable probability
of injury that can be prevented by the use of
such equipment.” O.S.H.A. 1910.133(a) Protective
goggles, safety glasses, or a face shield must be
provided by the owner and worn by the operator
of the equipment. Care should be taken to see
that all eye and face safety precautions are followed by the operator. ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY
GLASSES. Everyday glasses only have impact
resistant lenses, they are not safety glasses.
2. Do not disable hood safety interlock system, or in
any way shortcut safety controls and operations.
3. Be sure that wheels are mounted properly, the
hub nut engages the arbor for not less than four
(4) turns, and the hub nut is firmly tightened
before spinning the wheel.
4. Read and understand this manual before operating. Abuse and misuse will shorten the functional
life.
5. Be sure the balancer is properly connected to the
power supply and electrically grounded.
6. Do not operate equipment with a damaged cord
or if the equipment has been dropped or damaged – until it has been examined and repaired by
a qualified serviceman.
7. Do not let cord hang over edge of table, bench, or
counter or come in contact with hot manifolds or
moving fan blades.
8. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a
current rating equal to or more than that of the
equipment should be used. Cords rated for less
current than the equipment may overheat. Care
should be taken to arrange the cord so that it will
not be tripped over or pulled.
10. Wear proper clothing. Safety toe, non-slip footwear and protective hair covering to contain hair
is recommended. Do not wear jewelry, loose
clothing, neckties, or gloves when operating the
balancer.
11. Keep work area clean and well lighted. Cluttered
and/or dark areas invite accidents.
12. Avoid dangerous environments. Do not use power
tools or electrical equipment in damp or wet locations, or expose them to rain.
13. Avoid unintentional starting. Be sure the balancer
is turned off and power disconnected before
servicing.
14. Disconnect the balancer before servicing.
15. Use only manufacturer’s recommended accessories. Improper accessories may result in personal
injury or property damage.
16. Repair or replace any part that is damaged or worn
and that may cause unsafe balancer operation. Do
not operate damaged equipment until it has been
examined by a qualified service technician.
17. Never overload or stand on the weight tray or any
part of the balancer.
18. Do not allow untrained persons to operate machinery.
19. To reduce the risk of fire, do not operate equipment in the vicinity of open containers or flammable liquids (gasoline).
20. Adequate ventilation should be provided when
working on or operating internal combustion
engines.
21. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of
body away from moving parts.
22. Use equipment only as described in this manual.
9. Keep guards and safety features in place and in
working order.
23. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments and accessories.

ii • Important: Always read and follow instructions.
Owner’s Responsibility
To maintain machine and user safety, the responsibility
of the owner is to read and follow these instructions:
Definitions of Hazard Levels
Identify the hazard levels used in this manual with the
following definitions and signal words:
• Follow all installation instructions.
• Make sure installation conforms to all applicable
Local, State, and Federal Codes, Rules, and Regulations; such as State and Federal OSHA Regulations
and Electrical Codes.
• Carefully check the unit for correct initial function.
• Read and follow the safety instructions. Keep them
readily available for machine operators.
• Make certain all operators are properly trained,
know how to safely and correctly operate the unit,
and are properly supervised.
• Allow unit operation only with all parts in place and
operating safely.
• Carefully inspect the unit on a regular basis and
perform all maintenance as required.
• Service and maintain the unit only with authorized
or approved replacement parts.
• Keep all instructions permanently with the unit
and all decals/labels/notices on the unit clean and
visible.
• Do not override safety features.
Operator Protective Equipment
Personal protective equipment helps make tire servicing safer. However, equipment does not take the
place of safe operating practices. Always wear durable
work clothing during tire service activity. Loose fitting
clothing should be avoided. Tight fitting leather gloves
are recommended to protect operator’s hands when
handling worn tires and wheels. Sturdy leather work
shoes with steel toes and oil resistant soles should be
used by tire service personnel to help prevent injury
in typical shop activities. Eye protection is essential
during tire service activity. Safety glasses with side
shields, goggles, or face shields are acceptable. Back
belts provide support during lifting activities and are also
helpful in providing operator protection. Consideration
should also be given to the use of hearing protection if
tire service activity is performed in an enclosed area, or
if noise levels are high.

Set Up Instructions
Receiving
The shipment should be thoroughly inspected as soon
as it is received. The signed bill of lading is acknowledgement, for the carrier, of receipt in good condition
of the shipment covered by our invoice.
If any of the goods called for on this bill of lading are
shorted or damaged, do not accept them until the carrier makes a notation of the shorted or damaged goods
on the freight bill. Do this for your own protection.
NOTIFY THE CARRIER AT ONCE if any hidden loss or
damage is discovered after receipt and request him to
make an inspection. If the carrier will not do so, prepare
an affidavit to the effect that you have so notified the
carrier (on a certain date) and that he has failed to
comply with your request.
IT IS DIFFICULT TO COLLECT FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE AFTER YOU HAVE GIVEN THE CARRIER A CLEAR
RECEIPT.
File your claim with the carrier promptly. Support
your claim with copies of the bill of lading, freight bill,
invoice, and photographs, if possible.
Although COATS responsibility ceases upon delivery
of the shipment to the carrier, we will gladly assist
in tracing lost shipments. Our willingness to assist in
every possible manner does not make COATS responsible for collection of claims, or replacement of lost or
damaged materials.
Electrical Requirements
See serial tag for the appropriate power requirements
of your machine.
Always have a qualified electrician install the proper
receptacles in accordance with state and local codes.
Machine Set Up
CAUTION
Do not use the control panel, control panel
base, accessory storage, faceplate, hood or
shaft to lift the balancer.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to install and set up the unit
yourself. Contact COATS as noted below.
A factory trained COATS Service Technician must
perform the install, set up, and initial test procedures on
your wheel balancer. Do not attempt to install and set
up the unit yourself. Accurate and reliable operation of
your unit depends on proper installation. Please contact
COATS directly at 86-512-62620469 for the Certified
Service Partner nearest you.
Floor and Space Requirements
The balancer must be located on a flat floor of solid
construction, preferably concrete. The balancer must
sit solidly on its three feet. If the balancer is not level,
does not sit solidly on its three feet, or is placed on an
unstable floor, the balancer will not function properly
and may produce inaccurate balance readings.
Do not operate the balancer while it is on the pallet.
Select a location for the balancer that provides a level,
solid floor, and adequate clearance around and above
the balancer. Make sure the location selected has
enough room above and behind the unit so the hood
can be raised completely. The location must also provide working room for mounting and removing wheels.
Make sure the area has adequate lighting.
