Operation Instructions 
 
Preparation 
I. Drive the vehicle onto the lift or over the pit, so 
that the front wheels are centered to the 
turntables; Apply hand brake to ensure safety. To 
prevent the turntable from turning, lock the 
turntables with the lock pins before driving the 
vehicle; release the lock pins after the vehicle is 
well-positioned. 
II. Ask the owner for vehicle drivability problems and 
symptoms, wheel alignment history, and find out 
vehicle information such as make, model and 
year, etc. 
III. Check each chassis part carefully, include dust 
cover, bearing, rock arm, tripod-ball, shock 
absorber, tie rod ball and steering mechanism, 
for any loose or wear. Then check to see if the 
tire pressure and treads of the left and right 
wheels are alike. 
IV. Install the wheel clamps on the four wheels in 
turn and turn the knobs to lock the wheel clamps. 
The claws of the wheel clamp should be fixed on 
the external or internal edge of the rim according 
to the practical condition. Ensure equal depth for 
each claw and avoid attaching it on the distorted 
area.  
V. Install the probe rods on the pin
 bushes of 
wheel clamps as shown in Fig.4.1.

computer. 
VIII. Place the steering wheel holder on the driver seat;

pedal and the driver seat to keep the brake 
applied.
