Check Toe-In — MFWD Axle

APY61305-UN-24JUN21

A - MFWD Axle Toe-In Distance

1. Disengage MFWD and park tractor on smooth, level surface. Steer front wheels straight ahead. Stop the engine.

2. Measure distance (A) between the centerline of tires at a hub level in front of axle, using an outside bar of each tire or an inside bar of each tire. Record measurement and mark the tires.

3. Move tractor back about 1 m (3 ft), so the mark is at a hub level behind the axle. Again, measure distance between tires at the same point on tire. Record measurement.

4. Determine the difference between front and rear measurements. If the front measurement is smaller, toe is IN. If the rear is smaller, toe is OUT. The difference is in either direction (toe-in or toe-out), but must be less than 3 mm (1/8 in). Adjust the toe-in if necessary. (See the procedure in this section.)
