Alignment Machine Guide
The reason many commercial vehicles need to be realigned is due to tire wear at the rear and toe on the steering axle. When a truck is not aligned, it rubs the tires, when the tires are rubbed unevenly it pulls the truck in different directions causing safety problems and additional wear. Thanks to Hunter technology, technicians have what they need in one total system to handle corrections on these costly alignment conditions- regardless of the axle configuration. Here are the steps on how to realign a truck.
Step 1: Bring the truck up on the lift rack.
Step 2: Put the wheel alignment sensors on each of the tires
Step 3: Raise the truck
Step 4: Use the sensors to realign the truck
The process of completing an alignment involves a system that shows bar graphs that are red when the alignment is off and green when the alignment is placed in the correct spot. If shims are used for the adjustment, the required shim correction is automatically computed and displayed to make the process, go faster. If the toe alignment is off, the correction to the alignment is easy and precise thanks to Hunter’s wireless technology making the handling of sensors fast and easy. Once all the aligning is done a report will be printed to make sure everything was done correctly before returning to the customer.
