MEASURING INFORMATION DIAGRAM DESCRIPTION

Tech Tips


  • There are two types of dimensions in the diagram.

  • In cases in which only one dimension is given, left and right are symmetrical.

  • For symbols, capital letters indicate right side of vehicle, small letters indicate left side of vehicle (seen from rear).


  1. Three-Dimensional Distance

    A002KY5C04
    *a Distance between the centers of the measuring points

    1. Straight-line distance between the centers of two measuring points.

  2. Two-Dimensional Distance

    A002KT3C01
    *a Center-to-center horizontal distance in forward/rearward
    *b Vertical distance to center
    *c Vertical distance to lower surface
    *d Imaginary Datum Line

    1. Horizontal distance in forward/rearward between the centers of two measuring points.

    2. Distance from the Imaginary Datum Line.

  3. Imaginary Datum Line

    A002KTRC01
    *a 300 mm (11.81 in.)
    *b Imaginary Datum Line

    1. The imaginary datum line when measuring the height is below 300 mm (11.81 in.) from the upper face on the center of the flame.

  4. Measurement

    A002KSLC01
    *a Tracking Gauge
    *b Master Gauge
    *c Pointer
    *d Wrong
    *e Correct

    1. Basically, all measurements are to be done with a tracking gauge. For portions where it is not possible to use a tracking gauge, a tape measure should be used.

    2. Use only a tracking gauge that has no looseness in the body, measuring plate, or pointers.

      Tech Tips


      • The height of the left and right pointers must be equal.

      • Always calibrate the tracking gauge before measuring or after adjusting the pointer height.

      • Take care not to drop the tracking gauge or otherwise shock it.

      • Confirm that the pointers are securely in the holes.

    3. When using a tape measure, avoid twists and bends in the tape.
