Dyno testing has become incredibly popular in recent years, and if you are a workshop owner, adverts listing dyno machines for sale may have caught your eye. One thing you may be nervous about is how to operate your dyno machine once you have bought it. But the good news is that dyno machines are very easy to operate and you’ll get the hang of it in no time!
Some Basic Facts About Dyno Machine Operation
Before you begin any dyno test, you should always ensure that the dyno machine is properly calibrated. The test involves placing the drive wheels onto a loaded drum and then depressing the accelerator to rotate the wheels.
The test is usually very short, lasting under two minutes in most cases. Most modern dyno machines are very easy to operate, and test results can be read without much effort.
If the results from the test are unsatisfactory, which they usually are, then you’ll be required to dyno tune the car in such a way that the performance is maximized. The tweaks made can increase a vehicle’s torque and acceleration and improve fuel economy.
Tips For Learning How To Operate A Dyno Machine
The first thing you should do is always read the manufacturer’s guidelines. Guidelines will differ from model to model and from brand to brand. So ensure that you read up to have a clear idea of how your dyno machine works.
The next bit of advice would be to approach your supplier for training to gain a further understanding of how you can operate your dyno machine. Often watching someone else do and explain something is far more helpful than reading from a paper.
Once you think you have a good understanding, you may want to practice on your own vehicle and perhaps the vehicles of your staff members before you start charging anyone for your services.
It may be a good idea to choose one of your technicians to learn how to operate the dyno machine with you. That way, there will be someone to operate the dyno if you are not around.
