Start-up inspection

Please be sure to do it before work.

Please do the inspection without getting in the vehicle.

If any abnormality is detected, stop to use. If the product is used as it is, there is a possibility of damage to the main unit or vehicle, or a serious accident.

Side slip board (No. AG901) starting inspection

To prevent slipping, check that there is no oil, grease, water, etc. on the upper slider
(Side slip board). If it adheres, wipe it off with a waste cloth.
Check that the upper slider (Side slip board) moves smoothly from side to side.
Check that the gauge bar (indicator) moves smoothly on the scale plate.
(The gauge bar does not interfere with the scale plate.)
Check that the slope is certainly installed

Do not walk on the upper slider. The upper slider (Side slip board) may move suddenly, causing you to fall and possibly cause an accident.

Start-up Inspection of Step board (No. AG902)

Check for oil, grease, water, etc. on the step board to prevent slipping. If they are attached, wipe it off with a waste rag.
Check that the slope is securely installed.

Moving of Side slip board (No.AG901)

When moving the side slip board, do not lift it with the slope attached to the body. The slope may come off and you may be damaged or injured by dropping.

How to use

Install the Side slip board (No.AG901) on the side to be checked and the Step board
(No.AG902) on the other side according to the tread width (installation must be squarely
against the vehicle).
Adjust the gauge bar (pointer) to “0” value by hand.
Stop the vehicle at the position where it passes through the center of both boards.
Move the vehicle forward slowly (3 km/h or less) and enter the vehicle along the white line.
Please go through without operating the steering wheel.
Check the displayed value of the gauge bar(indicator) when the vehicle passes
(the indicator remains at the maximum value).
After checking the displayed value, manually return the gauge bar (indicator) 　to the value of “0”.
Repeat steps ③ to ⑦ and check the other wheel.
- Do not allow vehicles to pass over the allowable wheel load.
- Please stop parking on the side slip board. It will lead to the cause of failure.
- When moving the side slip board, be sure to remove the slope before moving.
- Do not carry anyone other than the driver or luggage on the vehicle.
- Remove water, oil, pebbles, mud, etc. What is attached to the wheels.
- Adjust to the air pressure specified by the vehicle. The amount of side slip may not be confirmed correctly.
- Accurate confirmation cannot be performed with the Side slip board (No.
- AG901) set on only one side. Be sure to use the step board and keep the height of the left and right wheels of the vehicle horizontal.

Example of use in a basic set.

Side slip board + Side slip board can also be used

Installation must be squarely against the vehicle.
The center of the wheel must pass through the center of each board.
