WHEEL ALIGNMENT
WARNING:
• Always perform the following procedure on a flat surface.
• Make sure that no person is in fr ont of vehicle before pushing it.
1. Bounce the front of vehicle up and down to stabilize the vehicle height (posture).
2. Push on the rear wheel to move the vehicle straight ahead about 5 m (16 ft).
3. Put a mark on base line of the tread (rear side) of each tire at the same height of hub center. These are measuring points.
4. Measure the distance (A) from the rear side.
5. Push on the rear wheel to move the vehicle slowly ahead and to rotate the wheels 180 degrees (1/2 turn).
CAUTION:
If the wheels have rotated more than 180 degrees (1/2 turn),
try the above procedure again from the beginning. Do not
push vehicle backward.
6. Measure the distance (B) from the front side.
7. Use the formula below to calculate total toe-in.
• If the total toe-in is outside the specification, adjust the total toe-in. Refer to FSU-8, "
Adjustment".
AdjustmentINFOID:0000000012430302
TOTAL TOE-IN
Loosen the steering outer socket. Adjust the length using the steering inner socket.
CAUTION:
• Always evenly adjust toe-in alternately and adjust the difference be tween the left and right to the
standard.
• Always hold the steering inner socket wh en tightening the steering outer socket.
