Adjusting Turn Radius of Steering Stops - 4x4 Axle
1.
Lift and support front part of tractor so that linkage can turn as far as its stops.
2.
Turn the steering wheel slowly and fully to the left hand side until the steering cylinder reaches the steering stop or until the tires are 25 mm (0.98 in.) from lateral shield of tractor.
3.
Raise the right-hand side of axle against its stop and measure the free space between tire and nearest tractor component. Distance should not be less than 25 mm (0.98 in.).
4.
Loosen locknut of steering stop (A) and adjust bolt (B) so that it touches steering stop (C). It may be necessary to shorten stop bolt (B) to achieve maximum angle of curve.
5.
Tighten retaining locknut (A) of steering stop bolt to 125 N·m (92 lb-ft).
6.
Turn steering wheel fully to left-hand side. Hit linkage housing against steering stop five times.
7.
Repeat previous steps on right-hand side.
8.
Tighten retaining nuts of steering stop bolts to 125 N·m (92 lb-ft).
NOTE:
A large tread and large tires will increase turn radius slightly.
