PREPARING VEHICLES FOR WHEEL ALIGNMENT

In order to perform wheel alignment correctly, all parts of the vehicle must be in compliance with
the manufacturer's specifications; it is especially important to check the tyre pressure and
eliminate play in bearings and ball joints.
Position the vehicle over an inspection pit or on a lift that is correctly equipped for alignment
operations. Make sure that the turntables and oscillating footboards are locked.
Mount the self-centering clamps on the wheels and lock them on the rim using the handles.
For steel or projecting edge rims, the clamps should be secured from the inside (1, fig. 23), in
the case of alloy rims secure the clamps from the outside (2, fig. 23), for rims with plastic covers
secure the clamps from the inside with the pins reversed (3, fig. 23).
If necessary, you can tap the wheel clamps gently with the hand to fit the clamp nose between
the rim and the tyre bead.
For other types of support clamps with a jaw or dedicated closing device, follow the instructions
attached and inserted in the specific package.
Insert the sensors on the pin of the self-centering clamps until they snap into position.

SWITCH-ON AND SWITCH-OFF

Central unit

Set the rocker switch (1, fig. 22) in the "I" (On) position to power up the wheel aligner.
Then wait for the starting screen to appear (fig. 26).
To correctly switch off the aligner:
- return to the starting screen (fig. 26)
- press the "F10" key;
- confirm by choosing " √ "
- wait for the computer to switch off (screen goes blank) and move the switch (1, fig. 22) to
position "0" (Off).
ATTENTION
Never switch off the machine when there is a page other than the logo page because
such an action might damage the PC.
If this should occur, when the PC is switched back on, the software will request the user
to press any key to perform the "SCANDISK" operation.
This operation is used to check that the PC has not been damaged and, if necessary, to
update some files that might have been damaged.
At the end of the process, if the program reboots normally, then no problems have
occurred. Instead, if any message appears that blocks the program start-up procedure,
contact the nearest technical assistance centre.

Sensors

Switch on the sensors by pressing the "Power" key on the keypad (4, fig. 25).
