Chapter III Operation
Front Runout
When compensating the front wheels the
companion Pod’s 5 power indicator LEDs
will blink for increased visibility if the monitor
is not visible.
Compensating the Right Front Wheel
A. When the Screen prompts the user to pro-
ceed to the first point of rotation, forward
25 degrees, rotate the wheel until the stop
sign appears on the screen or the LEDs
cease to flash on the companion Pod.
Hold steady until prompted to proceed to
the next position.
B. Rotate the wheel rearward 25 degrees
from vertical or until the screen indicates
a stop sign. The companion Pod’s LEDs
will also cease to flash.
C. After the readings have been taken at
+/- 25 degrees, return the wheel to the
12 o’clock position until prompted to con-
tinue.
D. Repeat the above steps on the left front.
Lower Wheels and Bounce (settle) the
Suspension
The next screen that appears instructs the
technician to lower the wheels and bounce or
settle the suspension so the vehicle sits at a
true ride height. Slip plates should be utilized
to provide the necessary sideslip required
to return the vehicle to its normal resting
position.
After runout compensation you will be
prompted to lower the wheels, bounce the
suspension and press OK to continue.
LEDs will flash
