4.3 Konnessjoni Elettrika
Connect the power cord to a suitable electrical outlet. Verify the voltage requirements of the machine match your power supply.
5. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
5.1 Immuntar tar-Rota
Select the appropriate balancing cone for the wheel's center bore. Mount the wheel securely onto the shaft, ensuring it is centered and tightened with the quick-release nut. The machine supports reverse fitting for certain wheel types.
Figure 5: Illustration of the reverse fitting method for mounting wheels, providing versatility for different rim designs.
5.2 Inputting Wheel Data
Use the control panel to input the wheel's diameter, width, and offset. Refer to the measuring caliper for accurate measurements. The KT-B700 features a high-quality integrated power board for stable and reliable operation.
5.3 Selecting Balance Mode
The machine offers various balance modes to suit different rim types (e.g., steel, alloy, static, dynamic). Select the appropriate mode for the wheel being balanced to ensure precision.
5.4 Starting the Balance Cycle
Lower the safety hood (if equipped) and press the START button. The machine will spin the wheel and calculate the required balance weights and their positions. The top-level motor with pure copper winding ensures fast heat dissipation and a low defect rate for longer service life.
5.5 Applying Weights
Follow the on-screen instructions to apply the correct amount of weight to the indicated positions on the wheel. Re-spin the wheel to verify balance. Repeat if necessary until the display shows zero imbalance.
6. Manutenzjoni
6.1 Tindif
Regularly clean the machine, especially the shaft and mounting area, to prevent dirt and debris from affecting accuracy. Use a soft, damp drapp u deterġent ħafif. Tużax tindif jew solventi li joborxu.
6.2 Kalibrazzjoni
Periodic calibration is crucial for maintaining the accuracy of your wheel balancer. Refer to the machine's specific calibration procedure outlined in the on-screen menu or a dedicated calibration section of the full manual. Users have noted that calibration can sometimes be challenging, requiring careful attention to detail to achieve optimal precision. If you experience consistent inaccuracies, recalibration should be the first step.
6.3 Spezzjoni
Inspect all cables, connections, and moving parts regularly for signs of wear or damage. Replace any worn or damaged components immediately.
