EXAMPLE OF CORRECT TOE-IN
FOR A MACHINE WITH 120 INCH
TREAD WIDTH.
(MUST HAVE ½" TO ¾" TOE-IN.)
1 1 9 ½
120"
TOE-IN
To correctly gauge toe-in, use a tape measure
placed at one-half tire height on the front center
seam of the front tire compared to the same
measurement of the rear of the front tire (subtract
the front measurement from the rear measurement
- it must be a positive number). Correct toe-in
should fall somewhere between one half and three
quarters of an inch.
Toe-in is pre-set at the factory and should not
have to be adjusted unless the steering cylinders
are removed.
Difficulty steering one way versus the other
may also indicate incorrect toe-in and may require
adjustment. For further assistance regarding toe-in
measurement and adjustment, contact the Hagie
Customer Support Department.
NOTE:
See page 79 for instructions on adjusting toe-
in. See also Operating Information for
information
on
recalibrating
self-centering
cylinders.
