Steering Cylinder Removal and Installation
- Greensmaster 3100
(Fig. 39)
Figure 39
1. Disconnect the hydraulic hoses (Item 28, 29) from
steering cylinder (Item 33). Put caps or plugs on all the
fittings and hoses to prevent contamination.
NOTE: To ease reassembly, tag each of the hoses to
show their correct position on the steering cylinder.
2. Remove jam nuts (Item 21) securing cylinder end to
castor fork (Item 19).
3. Remove locknut (Item 26) and washer (Item 27) to
remove cylinder from frame.
IMPORTANT: Before installing the cylinder make
sure the distance between ball joint centers is
14.4 in. with cylinder rod completely retracted.
Loosen jam nut and adjust ball joint if necessary,
then tighten jam nut.
4. Reverse steps 1 - 3 to install the steering cylinder.
5. After installing the cylinder, start the engine and turn
the steering wheel left and right from lock to lock several
times to get air out of the cylinder.
IMPORTANT: When disassembling hydraulic lines
make sure hydraulic plugs are placed in the open
end of the hydraulic line to prevent foreign debris
from contaminating hydraulic oil. It is also a good
idea to tag the hydraulic lines when disassembling
so they can be properly reassembled. Keep all hy-
draulic lines clean and free from foreign debris.
During replacement of steering cylinder, avoid over-
tightening fittings. Check hydraulic lines for cracks
or breaks. If a hydraulic leak should appear after
replacement of lift cylinder, replace the fitting or line
that is leaking. Check hydraulic reservoir for level
of hydraulic fluid after replacement of lift cylinder.
