Place the washer on a straight plate and
measure its height by means of a comparator,
using a set of spacers with a known thickness.
Note the average value.
RACK WEAR CHECKING
The rack wear degree is established by
measuring the difference between the maximum
and minimum values on the rack, in the central
area.
Attach the comparator support instead of
the cap.
Bring the feeler in contact with the pusher.
Mark points

comparator to zero.
Slowly move the rack until it reaches point
(
