    A - MFWD Axle Toe-In Distance

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


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

  3. Move tractor back about 1 m (3 ft), so mark is at hub level behind the axle. Again, measure distance between tires at 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 may be in either direction (toe-in or toe-out), but should be less than 3 mm (1/8 in.). Adjust toe-in if necessary. (See Adjust Toe-In—MFWD Axle in this section.)
