12. Wheel alignment adjustment procedure
[NOTICE]
◆This section describes the adjustment procedure performed in the TADANO manufacturing line.
12.1 Work preparation
• Perform the suspension down operation on a flat,
stable ground. Next, by the suspension free
switch, return the vehicle height to that of during
traveling, and then jack up the vehicle.
• Operate the rear steering, and align the center of
straight travelling detection switch with the center
of cam.
(To ensure safety, do not enter the area of tire
movable range.)
• Stop the engine, then insert the jig, and check that
the rear steering lock pin and lever hole are
aligned.
• Set up a string to between the front and rear
outrigger end faces. Set up the string at a height
that it passes through the wheel center as much
as possible. Also, with the lengths and from
the outrigger end face to the string, set so that
they become the same in the front and rear.
• Measure the distances A and B from the string to
the wheel disc surface. Make fine adjustments by
steering so that the distance becomes as "A = B".
(This can be operated while engine is stopped.)
• Measure A through P, and record them in the
record sheet.
