Tie Rod End/Steering Inspection
• To check for play in the tie rod end, grasp the
steering tie rod, pull in all directions feeling for
movement.
• Repeat inspection for inner tie rod end on steering
post.
• Replace any worn steering components. Steering
should move freely through entire range of travel
without binding.
• Elevate front end of machine so front wheels are
off the ground. Check for any looseness in front
hub / wheel assembly by grasping the tire firmly at
top and bottom first, and then at front and rear. Try
to move the wheel and hub by pushing inward and
pulling outward.
• If abnormal movement is detected, inspect the hub
and wheel assembly to determine the cause (
possible loose wheel nuts or loose front hub
components).
• Refer to the Body/Steering Chapter 5 or Final
Drive Chapter 7 for service procedures.
Camber and Caster
The camber and caster are non-adjustable.
Wheel Alignment
1.
Place machine on a smooth level surface.
2.
Set handlebars in a straight ahead position and
secure handlebars in this position.
NOTE:
The
steering arm center section can be used as an
indicator of whether the handlebars are straight. The
center section should always point straight back from
the steering post.
3.
Place a chalk mark on the center line of the front tires
approximately 10" (25.4 cm) from the floor or as close
to the hub/axle center line as possible.
NOTE:
It is
important that the height of both marks be equally
positioned in order to get an accurate measurement.
4.
Measure the distance between the marks and record
the measurement. Call this measurement “A”.
5.
Rotate the tires 180
o
by moving vehicle forward or
backward. Position chalk marks facing rearward,
even with the hub/axle centerline.
6.
Again measure the distance between the marks and
record. Call this measurement “B”. Subtract
measurement “B” from measurement “A”. The
difference between measurements “A” and “B” is the
vehicle toe alignment. The recommended vehicle toe
tolerance is 1/8" to 1/4" (.3 to.6 cm) toe out. This
means the measurement at the front of the tire (A) is
1/8" to 1/4" (.3 to .6 cm) wider than the measurement
at the rear (B)
Check for Loose Wheel or Hub
=
In. / mm.
Wheel Toe-Out:
