Functional testing of the toe lasers
Before delivery, our SetupWizzard components undergo intensive quality inspections and
functional tests. This enables and ensures accurate measurement of the vehicle. However,
to guarantee correct functioning of the toe laser after improper use or transport, you can
carry out the following inspections.
First, make sure that the setup wheel cannot move at all. Read the laser beam position on
the scale of the other axle and note or mark it with a dash.
WARNING
Then pull out the ball lock pin used to position the laser housing on the laser shaft and
remove the laser housing from the laser shaft. Rotate the housing 180°, put it back on the
laser shaft and fix it into position using the ball lock pin. The housing is now „upside down"
above the shaft, but the laser beam still points in the same direction as before.
If, after rotating, the laser beam continues to hit the same spot as before, the laser housing
is working properly.

Now it can be checked whether the laser shaft is straight or whether the screw-on flange is
exactly perpendicular to the shaft. To check the shaft, rotate it 180° around its axis so that
the scale is at the bottom of the shaft. The position of all other parts is retained. If, after
rotating, the laser beam continues to hit the same spot as before, the laser shaft is straight.
You can now also rotate the screw-on flange 180° around the shaft axis to check its
perpendicularity.
