3.3 WORK PRINCIPLE
The micro CPU will provide the normal information if it
checks each unit in the normal situation. And the
operators can execute the balance operation. When
balancing, MCPU can control the rotation of the
balancer tester main shaft through the drive interface.
The unbalance signal sensed by balance sensor is sent
to the micro-processor port through A/D converter. CPU
will integrated analyze the unbalance signal and angle
signal to calculate the unbalance value and display the
value through the LED unit. We can realize the
man-machine talk through keyboard and LED.

6.3 BASIC OPERATION
6.3.1 Switch on the main switch on the left side of the
machine,the display will display “CB-953” and
then “0”、“0”(it will display “0.00”, “0.00” in ounce state)
6.3.2 MOUNT WHEEL
Preparation before test:Check and clean the dust and
mud and if there are foreign bodies, such as metal
and stone, clipped on the surface of the tire. And also
check the air pressure of the tire is according with
the specified value. Check if there are deformation on
the rim positioning surface and installation hole.
Check if there are any foreign bodies in the tire. Take
off the original weight.
The installation methods of the wheel : Positive
positioning, negative positioning & flange disk when
handling the middle and big sizes of tires. You can
select the methods according to the different
conditions.
6.3.2.1 SMALL CAR WHEEL POSITIVE POSITION
Positive positioning is the normal method. It is featured
with simple and quick operation. It is mainly suitable to
the common steel rim and aluminum alloy rim with
small deformation.

6.4 INPUT VALUE
The choice on the cone should be adapted
to input the rim diameter into the display.
At this moment, the display will display “D”:“XXX”.
6.4.4 UNIT CONVERSION:
①The unit conversion of the Br of the rim from inch to
mm:
Normally, the display of Br should be in inch. When you
need the unit of the display to be mm, you can use the
key to realize the unit conversion from inch to
mm.
②The unit conversion of the DIA of the rim from inch to
mm:
Normally, the display of D should be in inch. When you
need the unit of the display to be mm, you can use the
key
mm.
After unit conversion, the unit of the display values of
rim Br and D are , but when you switch off and then on
10
to realize the unit conversion from inch to
the wheel balancer, the unit will be still inch.
③The unit conversion from gram to ounce:
Normally, the unit of the unbalance value is gram (g). If
you want to make the ounce(Oz) to be the unit, you can
execute the g/Oz conversion. The unit of the displayed
unbalance value is gram(g). The way to realize the unit
conversion from gram to ounce is to press
6.4.5 When press the start key,the wheel balancer
starts to run. A few seconds later, the machine
automatically stops. The machine can also start by
lowering down the protective hood which can be set by
the program.
6.4.6 DISPLAY UNBALANCE VALUE
When the spin ends, the display will display the inner
and outer unbalance value of the
rim. Use your hand to pull the wheel. When all the
positioning lamps light inside and outside light, the
weight adding position will be indicated.
6.4.7Rotate the wheel, when the left side positioning
lamp all light, at this moment, the highest position is the
inner unbalance position and when the right side
positioning lamp all light, at this moment, the highest
position is the outer unbalance position.
6.4.8 Add the corresponding weight at the unbalance
point and start test again until the balance of the tire.
knocking the main shaft.
6. When clipping the weight. Use the hammer to clip
the weight on the rim without too much force. Do
not knock the main shaft hardly to avoid damaging
the sensor. The position to add the Weight should
be free from the grease and should be dry.
6.5 RESIDUAL UNBALANCE VALUE DISPLAY
The minimum value of the standard weight is 5g so if
the weight you use is less than 5 g, the wheel balancer
will not display the value and only displays the state of
“00”. When you need to display the residual unbalance
value, you should press
immediately display the inside or outside unbalance
value of less than 5g. The maximum residual
unbalance value is 4 g.
and the display will
6.6 BALANCE MODE SELECT
Select the balancemode
according to the weight adding position and the
balance mode. Press the corresponding key to select
the balance mode. When you switch on the machine
the machine will automatic enter into the dynamic
balance mode and no need to select.
DYNAMIC—clip the weight on both sides of rim
(dynamic balance test once start)
STATIC— Stick the weight in centre
MOT—optional for balancing the motorcycle
1. When start the machine, use hand to pull the wheel
to help it start rotation, especially to the relative
bigger tire, to prolong the working life of the motor.
2. Check if there are any mistakes on the dimension.
3. Check if the balance methods meet the
configuration of the rim and select the balancer
most easily to balance.
4. Check if the quick lock nut tight or not.
5. When the balance ends, remove the tire. Pay
attention to handle it with gentle and avoid

Sometime, the troublesome of inaccuracy of balancing and position if because the damage of the press sensor. The
method to change the press sensor is shown in the following:
Demount the upper cover and right side panel of the wheel balancer.
Remove the nut 1&2, elastic washer, sanding washer and plain washer.
Loose the nut 3, 4 and 5 to disassemble each part.
Change the new sensor and mount the double head screw and tight the nut 5.
Use the spanner to tight nut 4 slightly and then tight nut3. At this time, pay attention that the horizontal
And vertical sensor screw should to perpendicular to each other. The end of the screw should fall into the
center of the hole with the gap of at least 1mm.
Mount the plain washer, sanding washer, elastic washer and nut1 and 2. It must be completely tight. Generally
speaking, you should fix the nut1 first and then nut 2.)
There is the glass glue protective coating
Short cut connect of press sensor output cable to discharge and then plug the cable discharged into the computer
board to avoid the high voltage to break down the computer board.
Plug the sensor plug according to the original position.
Calibrate the balancer once again and mount the upper cover and side panel.
After change the computer board, phase sensor or the press sensor, you must execute the self-calibration. In the
process to change the computer board, you should setup the parameter according to the parameter marked in the
machine or the original board. You must self-calibrate after changing.
