Front Axle - MASSEY FERGUSON 410 Operators Instruction Book

Maintenance and Adjustment
Tandem Pump Oil Filter
Replace the tandem pump oil filter element at first
50 hours then 250 hours thereafter or when the
blockage indicator light comes on.
1. Unscrew and discard the canister (1, Fig 109)
2. Smear a few drops of clean hydraulic oil on the
sealing ring (2) of a new canister.
3. Screw the new canister on until the sealing ring
just contacts the filter head (3), then tighten a further
half-turn by hand only. DO NOT overtighten.
NOTE: After changing the oil and filter, run the engine
and check for leaks, then check the transmission
dipstick oil level and if necessary, top up.

Front axle

Front wheel hubs
Check the front wheel hub adjustment every 500
hours.
If the front hub requires adjustment, proceed as
follows:
1. Raise the wheel off the ground and remove the
hub cap.
2. Remove the split pin (1,Fig. 110) and tighten the
castellated nut (2) to a torque of 80 Nm (60 lbf ft),
then slacken off the nut to the nearest pin hole to
give the correct end play. Fit a new split pin.
3. Refit the hub cap. Grease the hub until clean
grease comes out past the seals at the back of the
wheel.
Front wheel alignment
Check the front wheel alignment every 1000 hours.
1. Drive the tractor onto firm level ground and put
the front wheels in the straight ahead position.
2. Check the wheel toe-in (Fig. 111) measured on
the center of the axle at the wheel rim. Distance A
must be 0-4 mm (0-0.156 in) greater than distance
B.
3. Drive the tractor forward for half of a front wheel
revolution. Check distance again.
