Installing The Steering Wheel Assembly
If the steering wheel assembly for your tractor did not come
alredy installed, follow the steps below:
1.
Slide the pedestal cap onto the steering shaft so that when
the steering shaft is installed on the tractor, the pedestal
cap will be upright as shown in Figure 3-1.
2.
Remove the shoulder bolt and lock nut from the steering
shaft on the tractor and retain for later steps.
3.
With the steering wheel assembly upright and positioned
over the lower steering shaft on the tractor, align the
steering wheel so that with the tractor wheels straight, the
large opening on the steering wheel is facing forward.
4.
Lower the steering wheel assembly onto the lower steering
shaft and secure with the shoulder bolt and lock nut
previously removed. See Figure 3-2.
NOTE: Be sure to align the shoulder bolt so that the head
of the bolt fits into the larger hole provided on the upper
steering shaft once tightened.
5.
Tighten the shoulder bolt and lock nut using 9/16" wrench
and a 7/16" wrench or socket.
