Four-wheel alignment parameters
Testing conditions
– Ensure that the vehicle suspension, wheel
bearing assemblies, steering system, and
steering linkage system are free from out-of-
tolerance, looseness, and damage→ .
– The tread depth difference between two tyres
on the same axle should not exceed 2mm.
– The tyre pressure is as specified.
– The vehicle is unloaded.
– The fuel tank must be full.
– Ensure the spare wheel and vehicle toolkit are
located in the correct position.
– The windscreen washer fluid reservoir must be
filled.
– When inspecting wheel alignment, avoid ex-
treme positions of movable bases and turnta-
bles.
Cautions for wheel alignment inspection
– The equipment must be installed and calibra-
ted according to the specifications, and opera-
tions should strictly adhere to the instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
Seek guidance from the wheel alignment tool/
computer manufacturer if necessary.
Over time, the wheel alignment platform and
tool/computer may require recalibration.
Regularly inspect and adjust the wheel align-
ment platform and tool/computer at least once a
year as part of equipment maintenance.
