57.5.4 Neutral Set-Up Procedure
This procedure should be performed only after
the preceding checks and adjustments have
failed to solve the neutral lock/steering problem.
This procedure will eliminate machine
movement in neutral and will improve neutral
locking ability.
CAUTION
Use jack-stands with a minimum capacity of
3 tons (2720 kg) to provide adequate support
for machine.

wheels will result in machine runaway,
causing severe personal injury or death.
