aiming is even more important because the increased
range and power of this lamp make even slight variations
from recommended aiming hazardous to approaching
motorists.
The headlamps must be checked for proper aim when
ever a sealed beam unit is replaced and after repairs of
the front end sheet metal assembly.
Regardless of the method used for checking headlamp
aim, the truck must be at normal weight, that is with gas,
oil, water and spare tire. Tires must be inflated to the
specified pressures.
Some states have special requirements for headlamp
aiming adjustment and these requirements must be known
and followed.
Horizontal and vertical aiming of each sealed beam is
provided by two adjusting screws visible through the
bezel which move the mounting ring against the tension
of the coil spring.
There is no adjustment for focus since the sealed beam
unit is set for focus during manufacturing assembly.
