Preparation of Distance Measurement from the Vehicle Front

In order to ensure the precise application of the CSC-Tool Digital (2023) for the distance measurement from the vehicle front, the following steps are necessary beforehand:

  1. Attach the wheel clamp modules SE to the rear wheels (see section Attaching the Wheel Clamp Modules SE / WA to the Rear Wheels.
  2. Position the CSC-Tool Digital (2023) centered in front of the vehicle front.
  3. Switch on the laser modules of the wheel clamp module SE.
  4. Switch on the laser distance meter.
  5. Align the laser distance meter to the manufacturer-specific reference mark at the vehicle front. Adapt the following for that where necessary:
  6. • Height of the cross member
  7. • Move the laser distance meter horizontally along the cross member
  9. Now the distance value should appear on the projection screen.
  11. Direct the laser beam of the wheel clamp module SE to the left and right mirror of the cross member. The laser beam shall be visible on the left and right scale of the cross member.
  12. The laser beam of the wheel clamp module SE is reflected in the mirrors of the cross member Spand shall be visible on the measuring scales of the wheel clamp modules SE at the rear wheels of the vehicle. Otherwise, adapt the following if necessary:
  13. • Height of the cross member
  14. • Height of the scales at the wheel clamp module SE
  1. Only if the following values can be read at the same time you can start with the precise positioning of the CSC-Tool Digital (2023) in front of the vehicle:
  2. • Distance between CSC-Tool Digital (2023) and vehicle at the projection screen
  3. • Measured value on the scales of the cross member
  4. • Measured value on the scales of the wheel clamp modules SE at the rear axle
