Checking Toe-In-Adjustable Front Axle (2WD)
1.
Park machine on level surface.
2.
Turn steering wheel so front wheels are in the straight-ahead position. Stop engine.
3.
Measure distance (A) between rim flange-to-rim flange at hub level in front of axle. Record measurement and mark the tires.
4.
Move tractor back about 1 m (3 ft), so mark is at hub level behind the axle. Again, measure distance between rim flanges at same point on tire. Record measurement.
5.
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.
6.
Distance (A) at
front
of tires should be 3-9 mm (1/8-3/8 in.) less than distance measured at
rear
of tires. Adjust toe-in if necessary. (See procedure in this section.)
