air if needed to meet specification.
Note: The tires on some machines are foam-filled
and do not need air added to them.
4 Remove the drive chassis cover and the non-
steer axle covers.
5 Place a "bubble type" level across the drive
chassis non-steer end. Check to be sure the
drive chassis is completely level.
6 Remove the heim joint retaining fastener from
the axle.
