Wheel Clamps/Measuring HeadsPrior to beginning an alignment, attach each wheel clamp/head assembly to a vehicle wheel. The heads withthe extended booms are placed on the front wheel with the booms pointing forward. Note there are several waysthe wheel clamps can be attached to accommodate various wheel configurations..Option 1This option is used on many standard stamped steel rims. Use the knife edgeas shown. Apply pressure to secure the clamp from the inside out by turningthe lock knob several turns clockwise.Option 2This option is used on many custom rims with painted or polished surfacesthat need extra care. Set the rubberized surface inside the wheel rim asshown. Apply pressure to secure the clamp from the inside out by turningthe lock knob several turns clockwise.Option 3This option is used on many standard and custom rims with no inside beadsurface. Use the adapters supplied with the wheel clamp to insert betweenthe wheel tire and the outside edge of the rim. Secure the clamp by turningthe lock knob several turns counter clockwise.Option 4This option is used on many standard and custom rims as above with lowprofile tires where a thin adapter is required between the wheels tire and rim.Use as option 3.Option 5This option is used on some standard and custom rims with no opportunityto clamp from the outside in and very narrow edges on the wheel rim. Clampfrom the inside out. Use as option 1.NOTE: Always secure the wheel clamps using the supplied safetystraps onto each wheel to insure the head does not fall off the vehicle.An optional Dual Wheel Offset Adapter is available for some pickups, motor homes and larger trucks toaccommodate the difference in track width in the rear due to the dual wheel configuration. To use this adapter,remove the head assembly from the wheel clamp shaft. Place the Offset Adapter on the clamp shaft and tightenthe locking knob. Place the head on the adapter shaft, tighten the knob, and mount the clamp using one ofthe methods above.Page 48

Main Menu -- Begin AlignmentPerforming a wheel alignment begins at the <strong>Visualiner</strong>Main Menu screen. Place the highlight boxaround "Begin Alignment" and press Enter.TIP: The fastest way to see live readings on a vehicleis by pressing soft-key #3, "Readings", on the MainMenu screen. This will proceed directly to runoutcompensation and then directly to "All Readings" anddisplay camber, toe, and thrust angle. There is novehicle or customer information when Readings isused.Step 2. Clear Aligner MenuThis menu gives the choice to start a new alignmentor continue with an alignment already in progress. If"Begin new alignment (RESET)” is selected the computermemory of the previous alignment is erasedallowing a new customer and vehicle to be setup.If "Continue current alignment" is selected, all customer,vehicle, and alignment measurements areretained and the software returns to the alignmentreadings screens.Step 3. Begin Alignment MenuThis menu is where the type of alignment is selected.The choices are:Premium 4 wheel (thrust line) -- this type ofalignment measures all angles on all 4 wheels andis preferred for most vehicles.Front (steering may not be level) -- uses 4 headsbut does not measure rear wheel or thrust angles,creating the possibility of a crooked steering wheel.Quick readings -- goes to a sub-menu for selectionof front, rear or all readings and eliminates all prealignmentsetup steps.Driver complaints -- a symptom-based troubleshootingprogram as an aid to diagnosing drivabilityproblems.Page 49
