EQ 2100
Selecting this wheel type however does not allow the balancing of wheels for trucks because they have
rims that are significantly different.
The choice of the CAR or SUV Wheel Type is at the discretion of the operator who should run balancing
tests to determine which Wheel Type gives the best results for the particular wheel that is subject to
balancing.
To select the SUV wheel type, press repeatedly [P6] until the SUV LED of the Wheel Type group LED
lights up.
All Programme Types listed in table T3.2 are available for the SUV Wheel Type. Weight positions along
the section of the rim are the same as indicated in Figure F3.
Entering wheel dimensions
The dimensions of the wheel to balance can be entered in two ways:
• Manual Mode. This mode is always available.
• Automatic Mode. Only some models are equipped with sensors for the automatic entering (partial or
total) of wheel dimensions.
Note: all machines are equipped with graduated scales for manual measuring of the distance.
