Adjusting Rear-Wheel Tread

LX1030720-UN-13JAN03

A - 500 Nm (370 lb-ft)

B - 230 Nm (170 lb-ft)

The distance between the side wall of the tire and the fender must not be less than 40 mm (1.57 in.).

The distance between the running surface (edge) of the tire and the fender must not be less than 60 mm (2.36 in.).

Front-wheel tread can be adjusted by replacing or reversing the wheel rims.

In addition the complete wheel can be installed on the other side of the tractor. In doing so, maintain the direction of tire rotation.

After adjustment has been completed tighten wheel retaining bolts to specified torque (see Section ”Break-In Period”).

The relationship of the rear wheel disk and rim in obtaining the different tread settings is shown in the following drawings. A study of these drawings before attempting to change tread setting will save time and unnecessary labor.

After adjusting wheel tread, retighten all wheel attaching nuts after 4 and 8 hours of operation. Check tightness of these nuts frequently during the next 100 hours of operation.
