1. DESCRIPTION
The SEALEY HEADLAMP BEAM SETTERS, HBS97.V2 & HBS971 are supplied with a rotating column, mirror and visor. The HBS97.V2 has
the addition of a rail set. Either HEADLAMP BEAM SETTER may be used for checking headlights on cars, motorcycles and commercial vehicles.
The HBS97.V2 is approved by VOSA for testing all vehicle classes with the appropriate set of rails (Excluding HGV).
SPECIFICATIONS:
2. ASSEMBLING THE BEAM SETTER
2. 0 Place large metal washer over spigot at base of column B.
2. 1 Insert column spigot into bearing in base A and retain with socket cap bolt and
washer provided.
2. 2. Attach mirror-visor D to the rotating metal friction plate at the top of the column
using the two socket cap bolts provided.
2. 3. Fit the optical system E to the vertical - sliding system using an M8 bolt in both the
top and bottom holes.
2. 4 If the unit is to run on rails these need to be fixed to the floor of the test bay with
low profile fixings that will not interfere with the movement of the wheels.
2. 5 To ascertain the correct positions for the rails place a typical vehicle in the test bay
and follow the test procedure without rails. When the unit is correctly positioned for
one headlamp mark the wheel positions on the floor including a longitudinal
centre line. Roll the unit over to the other headlamp, check the alignment, and
mark the floor again.
2. 6 Place the rails loose on the floor using the markings made and put the unit on
them. Roll the unit from one lamp to the other and recheck the alignment. When
satisfied that all is correct fix the rails to the floor.
2.7 HBS97.V2 is approved by VOSA for class I,II,III and IV as delivered, and by
purchasing HBS97E Rail Extensions the unit is also suitable for Class V, VI,VII.
For testing classes I, II, III and IV the rails may be surface mounted. We
recommend the rails be recessed into the floor for all other vehicle testing classes.
3. WORKING SURFACE
3. 1. Position the vehicle on the designated headlamp aim standing area.
3. 2. When positioning the HBS ensure the floor is perfectly even and level.
3. 3. If this is not possible the vehicle and HBS must be on the same slope, which must not exceed 0.5º.
3. 4. Headlights must not be checked where surfaces exceed 0.5º angle. (See fig 3A.).
