The "Vehicle Specifications" page allows analysing the manufacturer's specifications to decide which opera
-
tions are to be performed.
In most cases the manufacturer specifies the minimum, standard and maximum values for the main angles:
toe-in, camber and caster.
Nevertheless, in some cases the manufacturer might:
•
Require to position loads in the vehicle or fill the tank before making the measurement and adjustment
•
Specify angles normally ignored: SAI, TOOT or maximum steerings
•
Specify the maximum values for the difference between the right and left wheel camber or caster
• (car only) Prescribe a special adjustment method, as the 'Toe-in curve'
•
Give different specifications based on the measurements of the ride height or the inclinations of parts of
the suspension.
• Check some vehicle measurements (e.g. ride height or component tightening torque) or apply special tools
(e.g. toe-in bar) before making the measurement and adjustment
You can also set the rim diameter in order to correctly display the toe-in in millimetres or inches and custo-
mise the vehicle specifications.

5. If the wrench icon appears, the vehicle angle is definitely adjustable. If it does not appear, the angle might be
adjustable any way.
6. If the camera icon appears during adjustment you can view the adjustment help images.
If you do not set the correct rim diameter when the toe-in is displayed in millimetres or inches, the
measurement may differ from what is obtained when measuring the toe-in with a rule. Nevertheless,
the rim diameter does not need to be set correctly in order to correctly adjust the vehicle; it is
sufficient to position the indicator in the green zone during adjustment.
