•
Verify the air pressure to the roll lock system. The air pressure should be at least 80
psi
[550 kPa]
for adequate brake force.
•
Verify the availability and condition of the tie-down straps. Do not use frayed or
damaged tie-down straps.
•
Verify the condition of the vehicle. Check for leaks or damage which may result in
projections or fire hazards while testing. Worn tires are unsafe. Tires of different sizes
(left to right) should not be used. Correct any such problems before installing the
vehicle on the dynamometer.
•
Verify the tire pressure and adjust as necessary. Tire pressure should be at the
highest nominal cold pressure setting for the lowest tire losses on the dynamometer.
•
Power on the Sensor Box and Eddy Current (if applicable).
•
Power on the computer system and load WinDyn via the Desktop icon.
