Checking/Adjusting Wheel Alignment
- The ignition must be switched on in order to check and adjust the wheel alignment of vehicles with rear-axle steering correctly. This has the effect of blocking the tie rods (rear-axle regulator) in the correct position.
- Connect a battery charger to ensure that no undervoltage occurs.
Information
Toe difference angle and caster cannot be adjusted.
- Prepare vehicle for checking and/or adjusting wheel alignment values. Place front wheels on rotary table and rear wheels on rotary/sliding plates.
- Compress vehicle as far as possible (by a few mm) at front and rear axles twice or three times and allow it to spring back freely.
