The vehicle should be properly
prepared as follows:
The vehicle should be placed so
the headlamps are 7.6 m (25 ft)
from a light colored wall.
The vehicle must have all four
tires on a level surface which is
level all the way to the wall.
The vehicle should be placed so
it is perpendicular to the wall.
The vehicle should not have any
snow, ice, or mud on it.
The vehicle should be fully
assembled and all other work
stopped while headlamp aiming
is being performed.
The vehicle should be normally
loaded with a full tank of fuel and
one person or 75 kg (160 lbs)
sitting on the driver seat.
Tires should be properly inflated.
Headlamp aiming is done with the
vehicle's low-beam headlamps.
The high-beam headlamps will be
correctly aimed if the low-beam
headlamps are aimed properly.
To adjust the vertical aim:
