2.) Fully thread one jam nut, 18032, on each capscrew, 15148, and install in each plate.

3.) Raise the steer wheels off the ground.

4.) Loosen the piston rod clamp bolt and turn the steering cylinder piston rod in or out to

obtain an equal right and left hand turning radius. The piston rod should be extended
fully in both directions.

Turning the rod out will decrease the left turn radius and increase the right turn
radius.

5.) Turn the steer tires to the extreme right hand turn. Adjust the R.H. stop bolt until the

bolt head contacts the steering spindle arm. Turn the stop bolt out three full turns and
tighten the jam nut.

6.) Repeat step five for the left hand turn.
