Hunter Highlights Vol. 74S

At the Rancho Cucamonga, Mercedes-Benz Education Center, Instructor Mark Gibson uses a Hunter HTA-MB alignment system produced exclusively for the automaker's retail center service departments. The HTA-MB includes customized WinAlign® Software and an interface kit for the Mercedes-Benz electronic level gauge.

With a line of Mercedes-Benz approved Four-Post MKS compliant Alignment Rack and HTA-MB Alignment System packages already in production, Hunter was ready to provide support when Mercedes-Benz USA recently launched its Quality Management for Workshop Equipment program. The program was designed to ensure that Mercedes-Benz retail centers are properly equipped and trained to meet the service requirements of the automaker's newest, most advanced models. Training for the program is conducted at the Hunter-equipped Mercedes-Benz Education Centers in Rancho Cucamonga, California and Montvale, New Jersey.

DaimlerChrysler Pentastar Service Equipment has approved Hunter's popular OCL360 on-car rotor lathe for use by the automaker's dealership service departments worldwide. The highly successful OCL360 eliminates brake pedal pulsations by machining rotors while they are mounted to the vehicle hub. An available fully automatic compensation feature reduces set-up and machining time to just minutes per rotor. The OCL360 is available to DaimlerChrysler dealers through Pentastar Service Equipment.

With the push of a button the OCL360A automatically compensates for lateral runout ensuring that rotors are machined to within DaimlerChrysler specifications in minutes.
