Week 3 ( 2/8/2020 - 8/8/2020)

I learned a new thing which is rebalancing the wheel using the balancing machine with the help of En. Anas. First, need to mount a tire/wheel assembly on a balancer. Before a wheel can be balanced, wheel dimensions must be entered into the computer which is A = Offset which is the distance measured from the balancer, W = Width & D = Diameter of the wheels. Then remove stones/rocks or other debris from the tread and any weights already attached to the wheel and balance the wheel until the finish.

I learned new things which is the best way to change car tires with the guidance of En. Zahin. Before tightening the nut on the tire, it is necessary to insert it with the correct method. Before inserting it, make sure the body posture is in the correct position and the nut hole is upright. Then, insert the tire according to the nut hole and need to tighten the nut but just to make sure the tire is not pulled out of the nut hole. Most importantly, be sure to tighten the nut at the bottom first before tightening the other nut.

 

Clean up the bay/workstation after finish the service & before call it a day.
