1) Pulling tools assembly.
It consists in the tools board, dolly for tools board and 17 pieces of pulling tools. The different
pulling tools are used according to the different distortion. The pulling tools may be used
singly; also several tools are used together. The use method is not changeless, but various
according to the model of accident vehicle, the degree of damage, the habit of operators. It

may develop the subjectivity of operators and supply more convenience. These are 17
pieces of pulling tools。
ATTENTION: When operation, do not exceed the Max Load capacity as far as the data in
table 3 are concerned. The manufacturer has the right to change the quantity and model of
pulling tools.

THE END
The main procedures of collision repair include: bend and twist
adjustment, replacement of seriously damaged welded steel plates,
Operators must make a detailed repair plan according to the condition of
each damaged vehicle beforehand. The main steps are as follow:
1. Analyze the damage and make a repair plan;
2. Disassemble the relevant decoration parts and mechanical parts;
3. Locate the damaged vehicle on the platform and decide to repair or to
replace the damaged parts according to actual condition;
4. Pulling operation;
5. Rustproof process;
6. Painting;
7. Re-assemble all parts;
8. Test-drive the vehicle.
The collision influences vehicles greatly. The auto body design request
the front and the rear sections to be easily damaged, which will form
collision energy absorbing structure and firm passenger section. Learn
as much as possible about the collision and make a detailed plan
according to actual measurement.
This manual introduces the installation; test and operation of CRMPL
201.There are also detailed introduction on collision analysis and
adjustment. For each damaged vehicle, analyze the actual condition and
make a detailed repair plan instead of following the illustrations in this
manual.
