Slacken off the toe-in adjustment screw (A).

NOTE: The adjustment screw must be slackened off because it affects the camber angle.

Slacken off the nut (B). Turn the adjustment screw until the correct camber angle is obtained.

NOTE: Do not turn the adjustment scale off the scale because this could damage the control ring.

Tighten the nut. Check again.

NOTE: There are two different types of nut. Each type is tightened to a different value. If the nut does not have a flange, tighten to 80 Nm  . If the nut has a flange, tighten to 90 Nm  .

For the correct values, see Wheel Camber, Specifications .
