Select
Test floor inclination
The vehicle must be measured on a level floor surface. If the user suspects that the selected
work surface is not on a horizontal plane between left and right vehicle sides, the situation
should be examined and taken into account for further measurements.
This step is not abso-
lutely essential but is recommended in the event of any suspected floor surface inclina-
tion
. On this subject, please refer to Point 14 from Page 52

Select
Special rims
In some rare cases, you may not be able to position the wheel alignment clamp for the cameras
correctly on the rim.
The camera measurement head must always be aligned parallel to the wheel hub
.
In the case of Trilex rims, we cannot guarantee correcting positioning of the wheel alignment clamp
due to the 3-part composition of the rim. Depending on the vehicle wheel, run-out compensation for
the individual camera measurement heads must be carried out using the
Special rims
button. On
this subject, please refer to Point 15 from Page 54.
