ABSTRACT:
The device for testing angular inclination of a headlight (11) has a inclination-detecting device (14) structured as a bubble level connected with the reflector (13) of each headlight and an additional inclination-detecting device (20), which is mounted on the chassis of the motor vehicle. The inclination-detecting device (14) of the headlight indicates the deviation of the reflector (13) from horizontal. The additional inclination-detecting device (20) indicates the inclination of the motor vehicle in a vertical plane (22). To test the inclination or orientation of the reflector from a set value, the reading of the inclinaiton-detecting device (14) is compared with the reading of the additional inclination-detecting device (20). The inclination of the reflector (13) is correct, when, preferably, the inclination-detecting device (14) on the reflector indicates the same deviation from horizontal as the additional inclination-detecting device (20). With the device the inclination of the reflector can also be tested, when the motor vehicle is on a slope.
