ON-VEHICLE SERVICE

HEADLIGHT AIMING

M1542000900099

PRE-AIMING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Inspect for badly rusted or faulty headlight assemblies.

2. These conditions must be corrected before a satisfactory

adjustment can be made.

3. Place the vehicle on a level floor.

4. Bounce the front suspension through three (3) oscillations

by applying the body weight to hood or bumper.

5. Inspect tire inflation, and adjust if necessary.

6. Rock vehicle sideways to allow vehicle to assume its normal

position.

7. If the fuel tank is not full, place a weight in luggage room of

vehicle to simulate weight of a full tank [3 kg (6.5 pounds)
per gallon.]

8. There should be no other load in the vehicle other than

driver or substituted weight of approximately 70 kg (150
pounds) placed in driver's position.

9. Thoroughly clean headlight lenses.

AIMING WITH SCREEN OR WALL

Headlight Aim preparation
1. Set the distance between the screen and the bulb center

marks of the headlight as shown in the illustration.
