Operation Instructions
Preparation
1.
Ask the owner for vehicle drivability problems and
symptoms, wheel alignment history, and find out
vehicle information such as make, model and
year, etc.
2.
Drive the vehicle onto the lift or over the pit,
ensure that the front wheels are centered with the
turntables; Apply hand brake to ensure human
safety. To prevent the turntable from turning, lock
the turntables with the lock pins before driving the
vehicle; release the lock pins after the vehicle is
placed well.
3.
Check each chassis part carefully, include dust
cover, bearing, rock arm, tripod end, shock
absorber, tie rod end and steering mechanism,
for any looseness or wear. Then check to see if
the tire pressure and track widths of the left and
right wheels are alike.
4.
Install the wheel clamp-target assembly on the
wheel and turn the knob to lock the wheel clamp.
The claws of the wheel clamp should be fixed on
the external or internal edge of the rim according
to the practical condition. Ensure equal depth for
each claw and avoid attaching it on the distorted
area. Use the safety belt to bind the wheel clamp
to the wheel rim to avoid falling accidentally.
Please see Fig.4.1.
