7 Alignment of Twin Steering Front Axles
7.1 Preparations
The mounting of laser measuring heads, fitting
of magnetic scales and set-up of toe scales can
be proceeded as described under point 5.1.
See pages 17-20
(Illustration 26)
7.2 Reading of total toe
• Direct the right-hand laser to the toe scale
behind the front axle.
• Read the measuring result:
1 long scale line
≙
1,00 mm
1 half scale line
≙
0.50 mm
1 quarter scale line
≙
0.25 mm
The laser point points at zero = The toe is zero.
The laser point points inward from zero = toe-
out.
The laser point points outward from zero = toe-
in.
• If the toe corresponds to the specified
values:
→ Note measured value in the test record
→ Check „straight ahead position“ and
steering wheel centre position
→ Continue with point 5.2 (alignment of
„straight ahead position“).
• If the toe does not correspond to the
specified values, toe has to be aligned.
Example:
The laser point on the right-hand side behind
the front axle points at the 7 long outward
scale line, i.e. the front axle has a toe-in of
7mm.
