Make sure to center the <br />ambulance/module under the platform and that there is at least 2.5" of overhanging platform <br />at each edge of the roof. <br />.4 an If only a module is supplied use I beams to simulate chassis rails. <br />If a complete ambulance is to be tested be sure to block the chassis to keep the vehicles <br />suspension from adding to the deflection. <br />.6 If testing a side load on a module lay side of module flat on floor. If rain gutter is not <br />removable use appropriately thick sheets of plywood in between floor and side of module to <br />keep from crushing rain gutter. <br />If testing a finished ambulance place a protective sheet (foam carpet pad or similar) between <br />the force application plate and the vehicle surface to prevent scratches or any other <br />preventable damage. <br />8 04 Set dial Indicators to measure vertical and horizontal displacement: <br />One (1) at the center of each side and One (1) centered inside <br />9 be Once ready for test.
