STEERING WHEEL FREE PLAY CHECK
1. With engine running (hydraulic operation), set front wheels
straight ahead.
2. Measure the play on steering wheel circumference before
wheels start to move when slightly moving steering wheel
in both directions.
Limit: 30 mm
3. When play exceeds the limit, check for play on steering
shaft connection and steering linkage. Correct or replace.
4. If the free play still exceeds the limit value, set steering
wheel straight ahead with engine stopped. Load 5 N
towards steering wheel circumference and check play.
Standard value (steering wheel play with engine
stopped): 10 mm or less
If the play exceeds the standard value, remove steering
gear box and check total pinion torque.
STEERING ANGLE CHECK
1. Locate front wheels on turning radius gauge and measure
steering angle.
Standard value:
Inner wheel 39 00'
Outer wheel 32 00' (Reference value)
2. When the angle is not within the standard value, the toe
is probably incorrect. Adjust toe (Refer to GROUP 33A
– On-vehicle Service) and recheck steering angle.
