JOSAM homebase 4 Operator'S Manual Download Page 94

Page: 94 / 140

When all wheels have been measured the operator is instructed to roll all wheels 180°. Rotate the

wheels 180°.

When the vehicle has reached the position the software shows a stop sign.

ATTENTION!

Do not use the measuring equipment to rotate the wheel!

NOTE

For a vehicle with varying tire sizes:

Choose the most common tire size on the vehicle. Then, raise the axles with the

deviating tire sizes and rotate the wheels 180°.
