Setting The Alignment - Reely Dune Fighter Notice D'emploi

Setting Rear Axle Camber:
For setting the camber, turn the screw (1) of the upper transverse
link.
Because this screw has a left and right hand thread at either end,
the transverse link does not need to be dismantled for the camber
to be adjusted.
b) Setting the Alignment
General Information:
Wheel alignment (toe-in = figure „A", toe-out = figure „B") describes the
relation of the wheel level to the driving direction.
While driving, the tyres are pushed apart in the front because of the rol-
ling friction. This is why they are no longer precisely parallel to the driving
direction.
To compensate, the tyres of the stationary vehicle can be adjusted so that
they point slightly inwards. This toe-in improves lateral cornering of the tyres
and leads to a more direct response to steering.
If a milder response to steering is desired, this can be achieved accordingly
by adjusting a toe-out, i.e. the wheels of the stationary vehicle point out-
ward. An alignment angle of 0° on the front axle ensures the best drivability
on almost any ground.
An alignment angle of more than 3° toe-in (A) or toe-out (B) will lead to handling problems and decreased
speed. It will also increase tyre wear.
The figure above shows a strongly over-emphasised setting. It is only used for showing the difference
between toe-in and toe-out. If such a setting is used for the vehicle, it will be very difficult to control!
