For the wheel alignment operation to be carried

it is important to check the tyre pressure and
eliminate any backlashes in the bearings and
ball joints.
Place the vehicle over the pit or on the lift
equipped for the alignment operations, taking
care to ensure that the turntables and oscillating
footboards are locked in position.
