Dynamic Front Fenders; Lateral Adjustment, Fender Support; Vertical Adjustment; Fender Turn Stop - New Holland T6010 Operator's Manual

DYNAMIC FRONT FENDERS

(where fitted)
Two types of optional front fender are available, both
offering a full range of adjustment to suit varying tyre
sizes and track widths. The method of adjustment is
very similar for both, but the following text describes
the setting of the dynamic fender. Ensure all fixing
bolts are re--tightened after adjustment.
Dynamic fenders turn with the front wheels as the
tractor is steered. As the steering angle increases, a
spring centered pivot in the fender mount restricts
the turn angle of the fenders. This prevents
interference with the tractor hood or loader frame
while allowing the wheels to continue turning
beneath the fender. As a result, tighter turns can be
achieved that would not be possible with a
conventional fender, particularly at narrower track
settings.

Lateral adjustment, fender support

A fender may be moved horizontally, towards or
away from the tractor, by relocating the metal shims
(2) either side of the fender support (1).

Vertical adjustment

The fender may be moved vertically by relocating the
bolts (3) in the appropriate holes in the fender
support. A number of the holes are elongated
allowing the fender to be tilted forward or rearward.

Fender turn stop

An adjustable stop bolt (3), is fitted to both fender
support brackets. When turning, the bolt contacts a
fixed stop (2) on the axle housing restricting the angle
at which the fender will turn while allowing the wheels
to continue turning beneath the fender. The stops
may require adjusting if the track width or tyre size is
changed.
Lateral adjustment, fender
The support and bracket attachment points (1)
beneath the fender,
adjustment allowing the fender to be centered over
the tyre.
Narrow Track Settings
With certain options and/or tyre sizes, the smaller
track settings may not be attainable due to minimal
clearance between tyre or rim and any part of the
fender or attaching hardware.
