AXLE GEOMETRY: CHECKING AND ADJUSTING VEHICLE HEIGHT
Measuring of heights.

Measuring the wheel radius.

To determine the centre of the wheel, place tool [1] on the heads of the wheel bolts.
Meaure the radius R1 using tool [2] (distance from ground to centre of wheel).

Calculating the front height H1C.

All types except CARLSSON CARLSSON
H1C = R1 - 140 mm H1C = R1 - 155 mm
R1 = Radius of front wheel (mm) R1 = Radius of front wheel (mm)
Compare:
- The value measured H1M.
- The value calculated H1C.
- Adjust the front height if necessary.
