The fenders may be adjusted individually. Several adjusting positions are possible. Tilt, width and height of the fenders can be adjusted depending on tire size. If the intention is to change between positions C and D, turn the part around (do NOT install it on the other side of the tractor). Then adjust the front-to-rear angle of adjusting arm (E). To make the adjustment, follow this procedure:

1.

   Raise front of tractor so that the front wheel drive axle can pivot completely freely.

2. Turn steering wheel in both directions and pivot the axle to determine the most suitable fender mounting position.

3. Adjust fender position so that the minimum clearances (see illustration) are met. There must not be any contact with the tractor frame.

   A = 40 mm (1.57 in.)¹, B = 60 mm (2.36 in.)¹

   IMPORTANT: If snow chains are installed on the tires, the minimum distance from the tires to the fenders (side wall to fender and running surface to fender) has to be 100 mm (3.94 in.).

4. Adjust fender stop to prevent it from being seized at the edges with steering wheel fully turned and axle pivoting. Make sure that the stop contacts the tractor frame before the fender can hit the frame.

5.

   Also adjust the steering stop to make sure that the wheel or the fender does not come into contact with tractor components (e.g. the tank).
