HEADLIGHTS AIMING CHECK - APE TM P703
FL2
Position the unloaded vehicle on a flat surface and
at 10 m (4) away from a white screen located in
the dark (see the figure) and make sure that the
vehicle axis is perpendicular to the screen. Draw
two vertical lines "↓-↓", on the screen, at a distance
"(1)" corresponding to the distance between head-
light axes. Draw a horizontal line "→ - ←" whose
height "(2)" from the ground corresponds to 0.9 x
(3); with the low-beam headlight on, the horizontal
borderline between the dark and the light zones
should not be above the horizontal line "→-←".
Now switch on the high-beam lights and check that
the centre of the depth light beam for each head-
light is on the corresponding vertical line "↓-↓", or
slightly outside that line.
N.B.
BEFORE CARRYING OUT THIS CONTROL, MAKE SURE
THAT THE FRONT AND REAR TYRES ARE INFLATED TO
THE PRESSURES SPECIFIED IN THE CHARACTERISTICS.
Both headlights have 2 adjustment screws, "(1)"
and "(2)", located at the back of the headlight used
to correct any misalignment of the light beam:
screw "(1)" to adjust divergence; screw "(2)" to ad-
just angle.
