4.7 Adjustment of steering angle
When the power front axle is in the condition of maximum oscillation and the wheels are turned to the
maximum steering angle, there must be no interference between the tyres or fenders and engine hood. If
necessary, adjust the internal angle by way of bolts (A).
Make sure that bolts on each carrier are adjusted to contact at same time. Adjust stops to limit travel in full
right and full left turn.
IMPORTANT:
At the smaller track settings, an interference condition may occur between the tyre and tractor or loader, if
fitted, when the wheels are turned to the full lock position. To avoid this condition you must check by
turning the wheels to full lock and adjusting the steering stops as necessary.
Procedure
1. Place the jack under the engine sump and
raise the tractor enough to allow the axle to
swing from one stop to the other.
2. Turn the front wheels to full lock and check
that the inside edge of the tyre does not foul
the tractor.
3. Carry out the same check on the other lock.
4. If necessary, adjust the length of the steering
stops (A) on both sides so that a foul
condition will not occur.
5. Tighten the lock-nuts (B) after adjustment
(torque 125 Nm).
6. Repeat this procedure on the left side.
