Dismantling
1. Jack up and block the machine under the frame
as illustrated.
NB! Make sure not to place the trestle so that
the control stay is damaged or parts of the
articulated unit are blocked.
2. Place a vessel under the transmission to collect
oil spill.
3. Clean according to the general instructions.
For further instructions, refer to section "5.6.1
Hydraulic hygiene" on page 52.
4. The hydraulic hoses can be mixed up. Mark the
lines so that they are reconnected on the correct
connections.
5. Loosen the hydraulic lines. Fit sealing plugs to
prevent leakage and contamination.
NB! Suspend the control stay with a cable
tie around the drive shaft so that it is not
damaged when the rear carriage is loosened.

7. Dismantle the protective cover (1) over the
steering joint.
NB! Check that the protective cover is intact.
A damaged cover must not be refitted but
discarded and replaced with a new one.
8. Dismantle the locknut (7) on the bottom of the
articulated steering.
NB! The screw is threaded into the frame
goods. It must always be unscrewed, even if
the locknut has been removed.
9. Turn the steering wheel full lock to the left for
better access.
10. Unscrew the articulated steering (2).
11. Put the steering in neutral position again.
Note!
Newer machines are equipped with a protector cap
in steel instead of plastic. Since plastic is worn by the
abrasion of the hoses, steel is a better option for
durability reasons. We recommend replacing plastic
protector caps with the newer steel protector caps.
Part number: 581 82 83-01
Before assembling the new protector cap, drill a hole
as shown below. Drill a 3 mm hole over the
lubricating point.
Check the joint bearing thoroughly for cuttings. For
further information, refer to the Service Bulletin on
the Husqvarna support site "B1500032".
