| Check | ||
1 | Check whether the measuring station is horizontal, level and clean | ||
2 | Check whether the load on the vehicle to be measured lies between 80 and 90 % of the payload, adapt, if necessary | For vehicles with full air suspension, the influence of a load on the wheel alignment check is negligible. | |
3 | Check whether the leaf springs or air suspension bellows are damaged | ||
