Laser Aligner AXIS200 has been designed and manufactured in
accordance with harmonized standards. It is thus state of art and
provides maximum security during operation.
Structural changes of Laser Aligner require written approval
of manufacturer!
Operational safety can only be achieved, if all required measures
are carried out. It is due to the responsibility of the operator to
consider these measures and to control their implementation.
In particular the operator has to ensure that
the device is only used appropriately to its agreed
functionality
the device is only used if proper functionality is provided
complete operating instructions are provided in legible form
at point of location of device
only suitably trained and authorized personnel operates the
device
the personnel is regularly instructed in all aspects of
operational safety and familiar with operating instructions and
contained safety precautions
all warning and safety precaution labels maintain attached to
the device in legible form

These operating instructions contain accurate safety precautions, following symbols have
been applied for indication
This symbol indicates general risk for the device and
materials.
Warning of hazardous electric voltage
This symbol indicates risks for humans, device and
materials.
This symbol indicates no safety concerns but
information’s for a better understanding of operating
cycles.
Symbols attached to laser measuring heads are placed close to laser beam output
opening.
Laser radiation warning
This symbol indicates that, above all, dangers to people
are to be expected.

Laser Aligner AXIS200 must only be operated by suitably trained
and authorized personnel that is familiar with these operating
instructions and capable of proper implementation.
Check Laser Aligner before any operation for visual damage and
ensure proper functionality of device! In case of defect inform
manager of workshop!
Laser
CLASS 2
TYP 1
Laser devices require general considerations:
- Do never look directly into laser beam!
- Define laser beam paths accurately, use laser absorbing
means to avoid stray laser irradiation! Hazardous reflections
are particularly caused by reflecting and shining surfaces.
- Level laser beam path above or below eye level if possible!
- Laser beam paths should not cross operational areas. If this is
inevitable mark laser operating area significantly and set up
required warning signs.
- Switch off laser after operation!
You can find more safety precautions in:
Safety of laser products; Part 1: Equipment classification,
requirements and user‟s guide (IEC 825-1:1993)
It is the responsibility of the operator to ensure proper operation
and implementation of safety precautions.
1.3 General safety measures

Avoiding damages and injuries during shipment:
industrial trucks must be in accordance with regulations for
prevention of accidents
shipment activities must only be carried out by suitably trained and
authorized personnel
heavy impacts during shipment must be avoided
Keep device always dry.
This applies in particular to shipment and storage of complete
instrument cabinet.
Ensure that storage location is dry and dust free.

Safe operation of Laser Aligner AXIS200 cannot be ensured if not
used appropriately to its agreed functionality!
The operator-and not the manufacturer- is responsible for all
damages and injuries resulting from inappropriate use to its
agreed functionality.
Applied laser of laser measuring head is a class 2 laser. Shortterm laser beam impact ( up to 0,25 s) proves not to be harmful to
human eyes. Eye blink reflex prevents the eye from injury during
short-term, unintentional exposure to laser beam.
3.1 Agreed functionality
Laser Aligner AXIS200 is designed for wheel alignment of motor vehicles.
Only for the fast measurement of the chassis geometry.
Front wheel alignment and steering axle:
- Total Toe / Single Toe
- Camber
- Caster
- KPI
- Relative steering angle
- Steering wheel centre position
Rear wheel alignment:
- Toe
- Camber
- Offset
- Out of square
Laser Aligner AXIS200 enables measurements while in driven position. No lifting of vehicle is
required.
Measurements can be taken fast and reliable on all types of motor vehicles ( with specific
accessories provided).
DO NEVER LOOK INTENTIONALLY INTO LASER BEAM!
In case of suspected eye injury through laser beam impact consult a ophthalmologist immediately!

3.2 Design of laser measurement head
Laser head and main components:
Laser head is free rotatable. Ensure that laser beam output opening is
directed downward to the floor after mounting of laser heads and before
switch on of diode laser.
Inclinometer
Required for camber and caster measurement during
front wheel alignment. Electronic inclinometer is
mounted on measuring head shaft.
