Steering Axle Toe Adjustment (Continued)
1
Lock the straight steer so the steering axle wheels are inline with the straight axle wheels
2
Raise the steering axle using a bottle jack or other device designed to safely lift the machine enough so both wheels
of the steering axle are not touching the ground
3
Before proceeding, place support items, such as jack stands with a sufficient weight rating, under the axle or the frame
to support the machine The device lifting the machine should NOT be used as a support device Place blocking
or wheel chocks in front and back of each wheel of the straight axle to keep the machine from rolling
4
Measure the wheel attached to the steering hydraulic cylinder first From the vertical center of the wheel, measure from
the inside front of the rim to the frame Then measure from the inside rear of the rim to the frame (Figure 55)
5
The inside front measurement should be 1/16" (1 6 mm) shorter than the inside rear measurement
6
If adjustment is needed, loosen the steering hydraulic cylinder's clevis clamp nut and bolt The clevis is threaded onto
the rod of the cylinder Using a wrench on the cylinder rod, rotate the rod for proper toe adjustment (Figure 56) Do not
tighten the clevis clamp nut and bolt yet
7
Measure the other steering wheel From the vertical center of the wheel, measure from the inside front of the rim to the
frame Then measure from the inside rear of the rim to the frame (Figure 57)
