Emergency stop
If an emergency situation occurs during a test, press the emergency button, the power
button on the remote control, the OK button on the remote control, or press Enter on the
keyboard. This stops the current test immediately.
Caution
Restart the test only if you are sure it is safe to do this.
If you are sure it is safe to restart the test: press OK on the remote control or Enter on the
keyboard to restart the test. If you are not sure: reset the system (see next paragraph).
Start up after an emergency stop
To start up after an emergency stop:
1) Turn off the mains power to the DE9419/DE9719 brake tester to switch off the unit.
2) Check and cancel/solve the reason for using the emergency stop.
3) Continue with the start-up procedure (see "Start up the test lane" on page 24).
Preparations before starting a brake test
In both manual and ATL test mode, before the vehicle enters the test lane, make sure that:
The tyre pressures are at the specified value.
Examine the tyres to ensure that the tyre pattern is in good condition and that the tyres
are free from mud and stones.
Determine whether the vehicle has a single brake control system or a split (dual) brake
control system. This is important for the operator to check a PASS or FAIL on the brake
efficiency.
Remove the covers of the roller tester.
The vehicle under test contains no load except the weight of the operator.
During each individual test the car is in neutral.
Warning
Stay inside the car and do not move during any measurement. Nobody should
touch the car during the test. Any movement in or on the car causes weight shift
and influences the measurement.
