2 General
Instructions
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE
COMMISSIONING OR BEFORE USING THE
EQUIPMENT FOR THE FIRST TIME
As soon as a vehicle axle is in position on the
rake tester ench, its rollers can e started up
and ecome dangerous elements. It is therefore
imperative to take all required precautions to prevent any
persons from accessing the safety zone, especially in an
inspection pit, when a vehicle is eing tested.
Similarly, when a vehicle is eing tested and depending on
the rake circuit and the type of test eing carried out, the
front axle wheel can lock. In some cases, this can lead to
the unplanned reversal of the vehicle. Consequently,
permanent monitoring of the safety zone is required to
check that no ody is standing ehind the vehicle.
The installation of an approved safety system preventing
access to the rollers as much as possi le may e required
y the regulations applica le at the installation site. If this is
not the case such a system can e installed on request
from the owner.
The manufacturer declines all lia ilities in the event of
alterations likely to cause damage or accidents made to
any of the equipment. This especially includes the
prohi ited deterioration, disa ling or removal of safety or
protective devices.
The test ench has een designed to test vehicles of an
authorised size and weight. Any other use not descri ed in
the user manual is prohi ited.

supplies to the console.
2.10 Precautions for vehicles
checked on the brake tester
›Check the cleanliness of the tyre treads, wash o
mud that could alter measurement quality y
reducing adherence, and remove any o jects jammed
in the treads that could damage the roller surface
coating.
›After eventual cleaning look for traces of aggression
or cuts on the tyre treads; the force exerted y the
rollers on the ru er during the test can worsen
existing damage and rip o pre-cut pieces of ru er.
Only place vehicles on the ench of which the weight
and size are compliant with the Highway Code and/or
the maximum speciications of the type of installed
test ench (see user manual, general presentation
section).
If a vehicle eing tested is driven y an untrained
person (the vehicle's owner for example), it is
mandatory to carry out the operations under the
control of an authorised operator who will give the
driver all the necessary instructions to prevent
incorrect operations.
The maximum vehicle speed during use (entering and
leaving the ench) is limited to 10 km/h.
2.11 Servicing, maintenance,
veriication or repair ork
Special case of metrology checks:
›When carrying out metrology checks, which require
the equipment to e powered on, it is imperative that
no one other than the technician carrying out the
check can access the controls or work on the ench.
›During work on the equipment, access to the work
zone is prohi ited to all persons other than the
technician carrying out the work.
2.12 Recycling
The materials from the destruction of this equipment
must e eliminated in compliance with the applica le
regulations in the country of installation:
›Collect the oil and dispose of it in a specialised
facility,
›Remove the electric and/or electronic parts,
›Dispose of the rest as scrap metal and deliver it to
specialised collection points.
2.13 Fire prevention
The equipment as such cannot in principle cause a
ire. However, the premises must meet ire prevention
standards in compliance with regulations applica le at
the location the equipment is installed.
The vehicle eing tested can e the cause of a ire
(accidental petrol leak, petrol fumes, sparks or other
causes). For these situations, it is recommended to
always have a ire protection device (extinguisher) to
hand (in the area reserved for the operator) in order to
immediately eliminate any danger that may arise.
Warning: efore testing a vehicle on the rake
testing ench it is imperative to:
Before carrying out any work on the equipment it
is imperative to power it o.

2.5 Handling and installation
instructions
Remem er that during all loading, unloading,
handling, installation, assem ly or dismantling
operations on the equipment the operators must take
all necessary precautions under workplace accident
prevention rules (hard hat, gloves, safety footwear, etc.)
as deined y applica le country speciic regulations.
Packaged equipment must e handled using
equipment suita le for lifting and moving pallets.
Unpacked equipment must e handled and installed
y trained qualiied engineers.
The chassis is itted with lifting rings and are delivered
on pallets. Their installation over an inspection pit
must e carried out using a sling with chains attached
to the 4 lifting rings screwed onto each chassis. Once
installed over an inspection pit they are completely
em edded and cannot e moved.
2.6 Instructions for the electric
installation
Remark: The wiring diagrams required to service the
equipment are not supplied ecause these servicing
and repair operations should only e carried out y
qualiied sta. These persons have all the required
documentation.
General case: 230/400 V 50Hz electricity supply:
To connect the consoles and repeater screen
(optional) install a single phase 230 volts 10% 50 Hz, 16
A electricity supply + Ground itted with a protection
compliant with applica le regulations.
›To connect the electric motors, install a 3 phase, 400
volts, 50 Hz (30 A for light vehicles) + Ground itted
with a protection compliant with applica le
regulations.
For any other power supply voltage: the speciications
of the electricity lines and protection to e installed are
deined on the layout drawings. Any electricity supply
dierent from that descri ed a ove must e notiied
when ordering the equipment.
›Fix the electric ox over the ca le input opening. An
unixed console can cause the electric wiring to e
damaged and create an electrocution hazard.
›It is mandatory to pass electricity supply ca les
through the uried sheaths recommended on the
layout drawings and they should e protected from
any risk of eing damaged (such as eing crushed, cut
or ripped out).
›The em edded electric ducts for the consoles must
arrive in the ducts over which the consoles are placed
so that no ca les are apparent from the outside.
›The ca les must e protected and the inspection pit
cleaned if liquid (water, oil, fuel, etc.) leaks from a
vehicle and comes into contact with the ca les.
›If the inspection pit has no water drainage (for
example due to water ta le issues), in wet or snowy
weather take the required precautions to prevent
water or snow from running or falling o vehicles into
the test enches. In the event of heavy rain, prevent
the enches from eing looded. Do not allow an
inspection pit to ill.
›Special case of low voltage ca les for measurement
circuits, printer and computer connections, etc.
–These ca les must e installed in ca le
raceways separate from the power ca les.
–The measurement ca le sheaths must e more
than 0.5 m from the power supply ca les for other
machines as these can e the cause of parasites:
compressors, motors of several HP, arc welding
equipment, etc.
–Avoid having a magnetic ield close to the
console and the magnetic readers (diskettes, hard
drives, etc.) as this could damage data or the
application programme.
–Similarly, a very high voltage power line less
than 50 m from the premises or a high-power radio
emitter could possi ly disrupt the computers or the
measurement equipment.
