Installing Steering Wheel; Checking/Adjusting Front Wheel Alignment - Toro UTV 700 EFI Pre-Delivery Setup Instructions

INSTALLING STEERING WHEEL

NOTE: The vehicle should be on level ground
with the front wheels oriented straight forward and
rearward.
1. Remove the nut and the steering wheel from the
steering shaft.
2. Install and align the steering wheel and loosely
secure with the nut.
NOTE: This model has a castle nut/lock clip and
drilled steering shaft. The lock clip will be in the
steering wheel hardware package.
3. Verify that the steering wheel is oriented correctly
and the front wheels are aligned straight forward;
then apply one drop of red Loctite #271 to the
threads and tighten the nut to 34 N-m (25 ft-lb).
4. Install the lock clip through the steering shaft and
nut. Install the steering wheel cover.
NOTE: If the hole in the steering shaft does not
align with the slots in the castle nut, tighten the nut
slightly until the next slot aligns with the hole.
NOTE: Adding a small amount of grease to the
cover bores may aid in installing the cover.
CHECKING/ADJUSTING FRONT
WHEEL ALIGNMENT
NOTE: All measurements and adjustments must
be made with the vehicle unloaded.
Mark the center-line of the front tires at the front and
rear of the tire; then using a tape measure, measure and
record the distance between the marks at the front and
rear. The front measurement should be 3-6 mm (1/8-1/4
in.) greater than the rear measurement (toe-out).

Always use a wrench to hold the tie rod ends when
loosening or tightening the jam nuts or damage to
the boots could occur.

increments to achieve the proper toe-out; then
tighten the jam nuts securely.
3. Check for free steering operation (full-left/full-right).
