Chery Tiggo T11 LHD. Manual — part 33

T11 Service Manual Chassis System

Note the allowed deformation of wheel rim:

The average maximum allowable unflatness depth at the two edges of the wheel rim shall not

exceed:

Steel wheel rim: 5mm

Aluminum alloy wheel rim: 3mm

9) Tire swap

In order to prolong the service life of tire and

confirm its wear condition, tire swap shall be

performed every 6000km (3750 miles), as

shown in the figure.

Tire Swap

Note:

Front wheels shall use the best ones.

After tire swap, set its pressure to specified value.

10) Wheel balance adjustment

After inflating the tire, tighten the valve cap

and perform dynamic balancing test, then fix a

proper balance weight at the internal and

external fringe of wheel rim. The ultimate

unbalancedness of the assembly shall be less

than 100g.cm, which is approximately

equivalent to a 5g-balance weight located at

the internal and external fringe of wheel rim.

Note: It is only allowed to employ one balance

weight to each wheel at each side. Moreover,

the maximum mass shall not exceed 70g.

Avoid excessive knock to the balance weight

during installation. If the operator feels the

knock is excessive, then timely replace the

balance weight. And the replaced balance

weight is not reusable.

11) Wheel Removal and Installation

Disassembly procedures:

a. Remove the trim cover of the wheel.

b. Unscrew the binding bolt of the wheel.

c. Remove the wheel.

Installation procedures:

1) When installing wheel and tire assembly, firstly, manually screw bolts to wheel hub for

pretension, then use special tools to tighten them in accordance with diagonal method. The

tightening torque shall be 100~120Nm. Never use impact wrench so as to avoid wheel damage

or excessive loosening or tightening. And never apply grease to wheel bolts. (With respect to

the newly mounted wheel and tire assembly, after the first 100km driving, wheel bolt shall be

tightened once so as to ensure proper tightening torque. Inspection of wheel bolt tightening

torque shall be one of the routine maintenance works).

2) Employ right-angled intersection method when tightening the fixing nut, the tightening status

shall be similar, and the wheel shall be able to rotate freely. In addition, wheel shall be on the

ground when performing final tightening.

3) Mount trim cover or place it as required. Manually flap or employ rubber tools to knock it in

when installing cassette-type trim cover.

Rear Wheel Alignment

1. Mount the Wheel Alignment Gauge or Wheel Alignment Tester

onto the Wheel.

1) Mount according to manufacturer's

specification.

2) Perform detection and adjustment to the vehicle according to specification, and the vehicle

alignment requirement is as follows:

General toe-in of rear wheel

18'±30'

Rear wheel camber angle

-54'±30'

2. Adjustment of Rear Wheel Toe-in

T11 Service Manual Chassis System

——If the rear wheel toe-in doesn't meet the

requirements, use eccentric compensating pipe

18 or eccentric adjust nut 21 to perform

adjustment. Loosen the bolt 17, and be cautious

to prevent eccentric compensating pipe 18 and

eccentric adjust nut 21 from loosening out of

the groove, then turn eccentric compensating

pipe 18 and eccentric adjust nut 21 till the

toe-in value of rear wheel meets the

requirement, finally torque the bolt 17 to

specification. (The right and left side shall be

identical)

3. Adjustment of Rear Wheel Camber Angle

—— If the rear wheel camber angle doesn't

meet

the

requirements,

use

eccentric

compensating pipe or eccentric adjust nut 4 to

perform adjustment.

Loosen bolt 1, and be cautious to prevent the

eccentric compensating pipe and eccentric

adjust nut 4 from loosening out of the groove,

then turn eccentric compensating pipe and

eccentric adjust nut 4 till the chamber value of

rear wheel meet the requirements, and finally

torque bolt 1 to specification. (The left and

right side shall be identical)

Ⅲ Front Wheel Alignment

1.Mount the Wheel Alignment Gauge or Wheel Alignment Tester onto the Wheel
