2.2.1. ALIGNMENT PIT DIMENSIONS (Applicable only for PT / VH / Wall mount
models)
In case of Pit model, the Rotary plate top surface and Vertical column
base resting surface should be equal
Pit for Rotary plates and Rear wheel sliders are necessary to carry out
alignment. Both the pits should be in the same plane. However the main pit is
intended only for the operator to go underneath the vehicle easily and carryout
the required corrections. The length of the main pit can be made depending
upon the availability of space. The Rotary plate / Slider plate locating pit can
be finished with Granite or Marble purely by owner's choice.
Slider & its pit are not necessary for Heavy Commercial Vehicles
(HCV). However alignment pit with provision for Slider placement can
be used for alignment of Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV) using the
same pit
Choice of finish of pit is the owner's responsibility
A Rail using MS flat (50 mm x12 mm) for Trolley should be partly embedded
on the edge of main pit with 15mm height from floor level. This is required for
placing the Jack over the moving trolley platform to lift the vehicle while
carrying out Runout. A centralised single Hydraulic jack or Dual pneumatic
jack is recommended
.
The floor level between the Left and Right rotary plate pits should be
same. The area adjoining the Main pit (except Rotary plate & Slider
pits) should be maintained at even level
The surface over which Rotary plates are kept must be perfectly leveled using
Spirit level. Also, perfect leveling must be ensured on both the sides of pit.
Otherwise it will affect the alignment results.
