Total Alignment
In the total alignment procedure, ever y axle on
the vehicle is measured and the axles are set
parallel – so all the wheels roll in the same
direction, minimizing rolling resistance.
1. Electronic sensors are mounted on the steer
axle and on one of the tandem drive axles
(the reference axle). The sensors are
compensated for runout.
2. The rear reference axle is measured to
determine the thrust angle. If adjustable, it is
aligned to point down the frame centerline.
3. The steer axle is aligned to the rear
reference axle.
4. Sensors are moved from the front axle to the
second rear axle. This axle is aligned to the
reference axle.
For other vehicle configurations, similar
procedures are followed, aligning all axles to a
reference axle. 37 pre-programmed procedures
are built into this system’s software.
