1.With the engine running (hydraulic operation), set the front wheels straight ahead.
|
|
|
2.Measure the play on the steering wheel circumference before the tyre & wheel
start to move when slightly moving the steering wheel in both directions.
Limit value: 30 mm or less
|
|
|
3.When the play exceeds the limit, check for the play on the steering shaft and steering
linkage connection. Correct or replace.
|
|
|
4.If the steering wheel play still exceeds the limit value after Step 3 is performed,
position the steering wheel in the straight ahead position, and then apply the force (approximately
5 N) in the circumferential direction.
At this time, check if the circumferential steering
wheel play is within the standard value.
Standard value: 16.5 mm or less
|
|
|
5.If the steering wheel play is outside the standard value after Step 4 is performed,
remove the steering gear and linkage, and check and adjust the pinion total rotation torque
(Refer to  ).
