BODY DIMENSIONS
General Information
1. BASIC DIMENSIONS
(a) There are two types of dimensions in the diagram.
(Three–dimensional distance)
• Straight–line distance between the centers of two
measuring points.
(Two–dimensional distance)
• Horizontal distance in forward/rearward between
the centers of two measuring points.
• The height from an imaginary standard line.
(b) Incases in which only one dimension is given, left
and right are symmetrical.
(c) The dimensions in the following drawing indicate ac–
tual distance. Therefore, please use the dimensions
as a reference.
2. MEASURING
(a) Basically, all measurements are to be done tracking
gauge. For portions where it is not possible to use a
tracking gauge, a tape measure should be used.
(b) Use only tracking gauge that has no looseness in the
body, measuring plate, or pointers.
HINT:
1. The height of the left and right pointers must be
equal.
2. Always calibrate the tracking gauge before measur–
ing or after adjusting the pointer height.
3. Take care not to drop the tracking gauge or other–
wise shock it.
4. Confirm that the pointers are securely in the holes.
(c) When using a tape measure, avoid twists and bends
in the tape.
