SAFETY CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS
1.Read the Operators Manual before operating the balancer for the first time. Follow all instructions and warnings marked on the product.
2.The balancer operates from a) 110Vac, 60 Hz wall outlet with the supplied 8.5Vac power converter b) 12Vdc supply. Do not use any other electrical sources. Use only an EARTHED electrical power source. Use only a correctly rated replacement fuse.
3.Arrange the power cord so that it will not be tripped over or pulled, and keep it clear of moving parts. If an extension cord is used, ensure its current rating equals that of the power cord supplied. Immediately replace a damaged power cord.
4.Ensure the balancer rests on all three feet on a clean, level floor with no debris under the base.
5.Do not operate the balancer: a) near fumes or exposed flammable liquids; b) on wet surfaces. Do not expose the balancer to rain.
6.Adopt the correct lifting procedures when lifting any object. Weights in excess of 100lb (45kg) should not be lifted unaided.
7.NEVER remove a cover or access panel on the balancer without first disconnecting the balancer from the electrical power source.
8.Only authorized and trained operators should use the machine.
9.Wear approved eye protection when removing or attaching weights. Keep hair, clothing and all parts of the body clear of balancer moving parts.
10.Remove all stones, old weights, and other debris from the wheel before balancing.
11.Centre and tighten the wheel on the shaft before spinning the wheel.
12.Check that all wheel weights are properly applied and secured.
13.The balancer will return to the normal power-up state if the power is interrupted.
14.When the balancer is not in use, disconnect the power cord and use the available pegs and trays for storage of accessories.

Setup
The balancer is programmed before leaving the factory to display weight imbalance in grams.To change this setting to ounce units, press oz/gram button, a decimal point appears in the Display Window (0.00). Repeating these steps will change the units back to grams (000).
Weight Increment Selection Mode
Machine is shipped in 25g (1oz) Increments to switch to 50g (2oz) Increments, follow this procurdure.
1.With the machine powered off press and hold the mode button.
2.Turn the power back on while still holding down the mode button, wait about 7 seconds for the machine to beep, machine is now in 50g (2oz) increments.
Maintenance
1.Clean mounting accessories, mounting surface, and spindle of balancer regularly. Grease and oil accumulate dirt which can cause incorrect balance results, and also act as a grinding compound resulting in premature wear.
2.A light coating of grease should be maintained on the sliding contact faces of the lifting section.
3.Remove wheel weights and rubbish from under the balancer.
4.Do not lean any tyres, rims, tools or other parts against the balancer.
5.Clean the Control Panel and Display Window with window cleaner.

FEATURES
The COATS computerized wheel balancer combines state-of-the-art electronic accuracy with ease of use and simplicity of design.Your COATS product will give you years of reliable operation and wheel balancing profits.
The Balancer represent today’s most advanced concepts in wheel balancing with these high-precision features:
Safe, accurate, low-speed operation -
Balance Truck wheels to 5 gram accuracy (Automobile wheels to 2 gram) at an operating speed of only 70 rpm.
Fast and simple -
With a single spin cycle of between 10 and 20 seconds (depending on wheel size) and a large display that shows the exact weight requirement and location, your balancer will promote productivity and profits.
Electronic simplicity -
All major components can be replaced in the field, and the automatic self calibration program allows the balancer to calibrate itself with little or no downtime.
Six balancing modes-
Normal for standard clip-on weights on the inner and outer rim flanges.
Static (single plane) for some specialty wheels.
Four Custom modes for combinations of clipon and stick-on weights, including hidden-weight balancing.
Lightweight and Portable -
The patented hand operated wheel lifting mechanism (no pneumatics) and built in battery, allow the balancer to be taken to the Truck. The battery automatically recharges when the unit is connected to the mains supply.
Economical -
The balancer conserves energy by powering down when not in use. Mounting a wheel automatically powers up the unit again.

Operation Guide
Balancer Display
The display combines solid-state electronics and graphical design to provide powerful visual presentation and durability.
The display indicates the amount and position of weights, wheel dimensions, operating modes and error conditions.
1. Numeric Display
Displays weights in grams or ounces after a spin cycle, when the wheel is rotated to the inner or outer Top- Dead-Center position. Displays wheel dimensions (diameter, width, offset) in inches or millimeters during wheel data entry. Displays ‘EEE’ to report an error.
2. Decimal Point
Illuminated constantly when ounces are selected as weight units.
3. Weight Position Indicators
Illuminated sequentially as the wheel is rotated and the correct position for weight placement is approached. This applies to both inner (3a) and outer (3b) weight positions.
4. Top-Dead-Center Indicators
Illuminated when the correct position for attaching the weight atTop-Dead-Center (TDC) is reached.There are separate indicators for the inner (4a) and outer (4b) TDC positions.
5. Rim Profile
Graphical rim profile to illustrate the Weight Mode in operation.
6. Weight Mode Indicators
Illuminated Clip-On Weight (green, circular) and StickOn Weight (yellow, rectangular) indicators to correspond to the Weight Mode selected.
7. Car Indicator
When the rim diameter is set at 17" or less the Car Indicator will light. This allows wheels to be Fine balanced to an accuracy of 2 grams (0.10 ounce). Refer also to the Weight Location Modes and Automatic Calibration sections of this manual for further details.
