Preparations tor the test
Mark a cross on a light wall, at the height of the beam centre. When the driver is mounted, this
height is 25 ins. Set the vehicle on its wheels a little more than 16 feet from the wall (measured
from the wall to the centre of the front wheel).
Adjusting the beam
Switch on the main beam and set the headlamp so that the cross on the wall is in the centre of the
area lighted.
Testing the dipper light
Switch over to dipped light; the top limit of the cone of light should be at least 2 ins. below the
cross.
For adjustment of the headlamp, undo the 3 screws on the retaining ring and retighten afterwards.
Sidecar operation
When using the scooter with a sidecar, the headlamp must be readjusted in any case. This is to
be done according to the foregoing instructions but with the driver up and the sidecar passenger
seated, so os to distribute the load evenly.
