I got a great deal on a 90s alightment machine. its a Hunter c111.

It powers up and i can choose the cars from the menue but I cant figure out how to get it to work. I know you need to put the sensors on the rims. Then flip them to calabrate and rotate the wheel 180 deg untill the light flashes green, Then I was rotating it back 180 deg till I got the green light. Then flipping the switch off the "compensate" Setting. I did this on all 4 wheels. Its an old one with the strings so there is no optical to set up. But in the Menue there is a Comensate and Calibrate selection. I dont know what one to use. I also run the self diag test and it sees everything OK except the printer. I dont care about the printer. However would that keep it from working?

So i get the sensors to go green. Lock them so the dont roatate and then go to the main unit to do the Toe and camber. I get no settings?

Any ideas or does any one know how to get a manual? Like a PDF.?

Thanks

Im in the Brandon area..

I was informed that you have to turn the wheels when calibrating to get a reading on the Camber and Caster?

Thanks for any input or help..
