The Aligner is intended for use by properly trained skilled automotive technicians. The safety messages
presented in this section and throughout the manual are reminders to the operator to exercise extreme
care when performing wheel alignments with this product.
There are many variations in procedures, techniques, tools, and parts for servicing vehicles, as well
as the skill of the individual doing the work. Because of the vast number of vehicle applications and
potential uses of the product, the manufacturer cannot possibly anticipate or provide advice or safety
messages to cover every situation. It is the automotive technician’s responsibility to be knowledgeable
of the vehicle to be aligned. It is essential to use proper service methods and perform wheel alignments
in an appropriate and acceptable manner that does not endanger your safety, the safety of others in the
work area or the equipment or vehicle being serviced.
It is assumed that, prior to using the Aligner, the operator has a thorough understanding of the vehicle
systems being serviced. In addition, it is assumed he has a thorough knowledge of the operation and
safety features of the alignment rack or lift, and has the proper hand and power tools necessary to
perform wheel alignments.
