ARTICULATION AND OSCILLATION
PIVOT DIAGNOSIS
Noise and vibration caused by the pivot driveshaft
assembly appear only at certain speeds and generally
come and go as these speeds are approached and
passed. When the driveshaft assembly noise becomes
excessive, it takes the form of a vibration which can be
felt throughout the frame.
Noise from the articulation and oscillation points must
be investigated.
An 'Articulation and Oscillation Pivot Diagnosis' table is
shown below.
