Before you begin
Angular correction is required on the test track only. If you are using the same
transducer(s) for non-spinning simulation testing you must load the correct
software into the TI.
The SWIFT sensor must be attached to the test fixture before the vehicle is
mounted.
Clean all surfaces. It is critical that all surfaces be free of stones, burrs, and
grease.
Do not pressure-wash the transducer or clean it with solvents.
Pressure-washing the transducer or cleaning it with solvents can damage it
or degrade the silastic seal and may void the warranty.
Using strong cleaners or solvents can damage the RTV seal and may void
the warranty.
Use only a soft sponge or brush with non-metal bristles and a gentle detergent
(such as dish soap) to wash the transducer.
Do not use high-pressure air to clean debris from around the transducer
connectors.
High-pressure air can damage the silastic seals and may void the warranty.
Use a brush with fine, non-metal bristles and low air-pressure [0.07 MPa (10 psi)]
to clean debris from around the transducer connectors.
Do not under-torque the lug nuts.
Lug nuts that are not properly tightened can become loose during testing.
Loss of a wheel can cause damage to the test vehicle and transducer and
result in serious injury, death, or property damage.
Always tighten the lug nuts to the torque rating recommended for the vehicle/
wheel. Recheck the torque daily and/or before each testing session.
