Inspection course operation procedures and precautions
At this block, inspections will be carried out using inspection machines to check your vehicle's fundamentals such as advancing capability, braking performance, speedometer accuracy, headlight luminous intensity and angles, etc.
- Do not drive onto the course with a motorcycle, a three-wheeled vehicle, or a vehicle with axle weight exceeding 1,500kg (for some testers, 2,000kg).
- If your vehicle is a flat-low type vehicle (vehicles with extreme size differences in front and rear wheels) or a 4WS vehicle (four-wheel steering vehicles), enter the appropriate information using the application button.
- If your vehicle is being re-inspected, use the re-inspection application button to notify your inspector on which parts are being re-inspected.
- Drive slowly onto the tester after confirming that the "enter" sign is shown on the display.
- Drive onto or off from the tester, operate headlights, etc. as indicated by the display of the inspection machine or as directed by your inspector.
- When moving or stopping your vehicle within the inspection course, be sure to stop your vehicle at the stop line.
Sideslip inspection
This inspection will check the amount of sideslip that occurs when the vehicle is advancing forward.
Inspection course operation procedures and precautions
Align your vehicle with the center of the tester upon entering the inspection course.
Proceed according to the display's instructions.
Brake inspection
The vehicle's front-wheel, rear-wheel, and parking brake performances will be inspected.
Inspection course operation procedures and precautions
Be careful of the headlight tester when proceeding forward.
Place the vehicle tires on the roller of the tester.
Check that all front and rear wheels are placed on the roller. If they are not placed properly, please notify your inspector.
Make sure that the gear is shifted in the "neutral" position.
Step on the main brake, then the parking brake, as directed by the display.
Speedometer inspection
Speedometer accuracy will be inspected.
Inspection course operation procedures and precautions
hange gears as directed by the display.
Hold on to the steering wheel tightly.
Step on the accelerator and speed up gradually.
When the speedometer indicates 40km/h, blink the headlight.
Step on the brake slowly to a complete stop after the passing/failing judgment has been made.
Headlight inspection
This inspection will check if the headlight luminous intensity and angles meet the standards.
Inspection course operation procedures and precautions
With the engine turned on, change the gear into "neutral" or "P"-range and pull on the parking brake.
Turn on the headlight (upward or downward) as directed by the display.
The headlight tester will automatically move in all four directions, according to the position of your vehicle's lights, to measure the luminous intensity and axis.
When all inspection procedures of this block are finished, the display will indicate "record" and "proceed".
Proceed slowly and stop at the proper stop line.
Change the gear into "neutral" or "P"-range and pull on the parking brake.
Get off from the vehicle, insert the inspection result slip into the recorder and be the results filled in.
Do not bend or fold the inspection result slip, and be sure to insert it in the right direction as indicated by the arrow.
