D-3.13 Shafting Alignment - Genie GTH-3512 Operator's Manual

D-3.13 SHAFTING ALIGNMENT

■
During operation, the alignment of the front and rear
axles of the machine can be subject to variations. This
can depend on an oil blow-by from the steering control
circuit, or on a steering of both axles when front and
rear wheels are not perfectly aligned.
To fix this problem, rather than checking the alignment
visually, follow the procedure below:
1) Move to a solid and level ground
2) Set the steering selection switch
steer" (pos. 2)
3) Rotate the steering up to its stop (either to the right
or to the left)
4) Set the steering selection switch to "two-wheel
steer" (pos. 0)
5) Rotate the steering up to its stop (turn in the same
direction as above)
6) Reset the steering selection switch to "four-wheel
steer" (pos. 2)
7) Rotate the steering (to the side opposite to point 3)
so that the rear axle reaches its stop
8) Reset the steering selection switch to "two-wheel
steer" (pos. 0)
9) Rotate the steering (to the same side as in point 7)
so that the front axle reaches its stop
10) Reset the steering selection switch to "four-wheel
steer" (pos. 2)
Now the wheels should be aligned.
