To Reposition Door Up or Down
NOTE:
Door raised adjustment is limited by a
striker at top rear of door (View A, fig. 102).
The striker support at cab is mounted over a
shim which will usually provide the proper
clearance at top of door; however, shim can be
removed or another added as desired.
a. Loosen hinge-to-door cap screws slightly. Re
position door on hinges to provide equal clearance
around perimeter of door in cab opening.
