Generally a good shop that does balancing will have various components that are already "0" internally balanced such as a dampener or flywheel which are attached to a crank that is desired to be "0" balanced. then after the crank in question is brought to "0" by removal of material from the crank, the other customer parts such as flywheel and the dampener are attached 1 at a time and necessary material removed from them individually to maintain the "0" balance. This would also hold true for the pressure plate although they are normally "0" balanced to begin with. Then in the future any damaged part could be replaced with a "0" balanced item and maintain the overall balance of the assembly.
Your equipment will not balance the engine parts. Take it to a competant engine shop.
