Set the tow gauge on top of the uprights, and focus on one side of the car. Slide the gauge to that side, until the pin that sticks up from the uprights bottoms out against the side of the slot in the tow gauge. Keep it pressed against that pin and make your adjustments.
thanks kx250ryder for responding...
when i slide the top plate all the way to one side and it hits the uprights, the gauge already reads 1degree or so. is it supposed to line up exactly with the 0degree mark? or do i just slide the top plate until it reads "zero degree on my model" and continue from there?
