Introduction - SICE A98 Manuel D'instructions

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this manual is to furnish the owner and operator of this machine with a set of
practical and safe instructions for the use and maintenance of the wheel aligner. Follow all the
instructions carefully and your aligner will assist you in your work and give lasting and efficient
service in keeping with our traditions.
The following paragraphs define the levels of danger regarding the machine, associated with
the warning captions found in this manual.
DANGER
Refers to immediate dangers with the risk of serious injuries or even death.
WARNING
Dangers or unsafe procedures that can cause serious injuries or even death.
ATTENTION
Dangers or unsafe procedures that can cause minor injuries or damage to property.
This manual is subject to changes and updates.
Always read the personalisation and update instructions appended to the manual.
The manual is organised into logical chapter headings to facilitate its consultation, and is
intended – particularly as far as maintenance operations are concerned – for specialised
technicians with the necessary knowledge of mechanical, electromechanical and computerised
systems. The system has in any case been designed to simplify as much as possible all the
operations relative to its normal functioning, as well those pertaining to the more delicate
troubleshooting phases: to this end, a wide array of on-screen messages (which are described
in this manual) provide specific information for solving the various problems which may arise.
Read these instructions carefully before powering up the machine.
Keep this manual and all illustrative material supplied with the machine in a folder near the
aligner where it is readily accessible for consultation by the machine operator.
The technical documentation supplied is an integral part of the machine, and must always
accompany the equipment if it is sold or transferred to a new owner.
The manual is applicable exclusively to the machine model and serial number indicated on the
data plate affixed to it.
WARNING
Adhere to the contents of this manual. The builder declines all liability in the case of
actions not specifically described and authorised in this manual.
The wheel aligner is a measuring tool, so the suggestions for the adjustments to be
made on the vehicle (animations or fixed help-on-line contained in the aligner) are merely
indicative. In any case, before making any intervention on the vehicle, the operator must
examine and be aware of the regulations (in other words the instructions or
recommendations of the manufacturer), and always make the adjustments in compliance
with such priority indications.
The company declines all responsibility deriving from the execution of such regulations
and any damage that could eventually result.
NOTE
Some of the illustrations in this manual have been taken from photographs of prototypes; the
standard production models may differ slightly in certain respects.
