Setting Front Wheel Toe-In Angle
Setting Toe In For Tadpole Trikes
(0mm to 3mm recommended):
1.
With the trike on the ground and wheels fixed in the straight ahead position, measure from the front of the left wheel centerline across to the
right wheel centerline. See Figure H. Record that measurement.
Repeat the above for the rear left wheel centerline across to the right side centerline. See Figure I. Record the measurement.
The measurement should be the same or up to 3mm toed in.
2.
Hint for simple measuring technique: Use a tape measure and hook one end on an inside spoke at the centerline of the left front wheel and
measure to the opposing inside spoke on the front of the right hand wheel. Use the same technique at the rear.
3.
To adjust the toe in, loosen the Rod End Jam Nuts (See Figure J) on the Steering Linkage Assembly (7) turn the Steering Linkage clockwise
or counter clockwise. This will lengthen or shorten the rod since the rod ends are right hand threaded on one side and left hand threaded on
the
other.
4.
Tighten the Rod End Jam Nuts (See Figure J) and recheck the toe in. Re-adjust if necessary.
