SPEEDOMETER TESTIF A FREE ROLLER IS USED
1.Set the free roller on the floor (at the rear wheels) so that itis aligned with the vehicle’s wheelbase and the rear tread.
2.Carefully move the vehicle onto the tester and free roller.
3. Set the speedometer tester in place.
4. Perform the speedometer test.
For information concerning the measurement of speed andthe allowable error, refer to GROUP
8-Meters and
Gauges.Caution
Do not operate the clutch suddenly, or increase or
reduce speed suddenly during the work.
IF THE REAR WHEELS ARE JACKED UP
1. Move the vehicle onto the speedometer tester.
2. Jack up the rear wheels, and place axle stands at the
designated part of the side sill.
3. Perform the speedometer test.
For information concerning the measurement of speed andthe allowable error, refer to GROUP
8-Meters and
Gauges.
CautionDo not operate the clutch suddenly, or increase or
reduce speed suddenly during the work.
Front wheel side slip
To prevent the front wheels from moving from side to side,
attach tension bars to the front tie-down brackets, and secure
both ends at anchor plates.
Accident prevention procedures
(1) Attach a chain or wire to the rear tie-down hole. (Refer to
GROUP 8-Meters and Gauges.) Make sure the end of thewire or chain is secured firmly.
(2) Take all other necessary precautions.
BRAKE TESTIn order to stabilize the viscous coupling’s dragging force, the
brake test should always be conducted after the speedometer
test.
FRONT WHEEL MEASUREMENTS
1. Place the front wheels on the brake tester.
2. Perform the brake test.
CautionThe rear wheels should remain on the ground.
3. If the brake dragging force exceeds the specified value,
jack up the vehicle and manually rotate each wheel to
check the rotation condition of each wheel.
NOTE
If the brake dragging force exceeds the specified value, the
cause may be the effect of the viscous coupling’s draggingforce, so jack up the front wheels and check the rotation
condition of the wheels in this state for no effect by the
viscous coupling’s dragging force.
