6• Calculating the tyre deflection:
- subtract the two measurements made to obtain
the tyre deflection.
7• Carry out stages 4, 5 and 6 for the other rear
wheel.
8• Calculate the average deflection for both
tyres:
- add the two values for the two deflections
noted for the two rear wheels and divide the
result by two to give the average deflection.
9• Reading the graphs:
- On the first graph, read off the load on the rear
axle as a function of the average deflection
noted.
- On the second graph, read off the output
pressure P2 (corresponds to the pressure
applied to each rear wheel) as a function of the
load value noted from the first graph.
IMPORTANT: each graph corresponds to a
particular make and type of tyre.
10 • Adjusting the compensator :
- Follow the current method described for After
Sales if the compensator is incorrectly set.
