VEHICLE PREPARA-
TION FOR ALIGN-
MENT OPERATIONS
In order to perform alignment correctly,
all parts of the vehicle must be in com-
pliance with the manufacturer's specifica-
tions; 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-centring 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. 19), in the case of alloy
rims secure the clamps from the outside
(2, fig. 19), for rims with plastic covers se-
cure the clamps from the inside with the
pins reversed (3, fig. 19).
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 measuring sensors on the pin

snap into position.
