Apparatus and methods for realigning and re-adhering a hanging tool-equipped crawler vehicle with respect to a non-level surface of a target object. When the cable-suspended crawler vehicle with suction devices is adhered to a non-level surface of a target object, it is possible for the crawler vehicle to detach from the surface and be left hanging from the end of the cable in a state. While hanging from the end of the cable in a misaligned state and not in contact with the target object, the crawler vehicle is unable to carry out a planned maintenance operation. Before the maintenance operation is resumed, the crawler vehicle is realigned with the surface of the target object using a turret, a rotating arm or a cam-shaped roll bar provided as equipment on the crawler vehicle and then re-adhered to the surface by activation of the suction devices.
