Neutral and Transmission Links Adjustment
The first step is to coordinate the neutral points of
the steering gear box, both transmissions and the con-
trol linkages. The transmission links will self adjust
when the neutral adjustment and wheel alignment are
done. To establish neutral:
1. Lock Steering Gear Box in Neutral Position:
1a. Remove the 1/4”-20 plug screw from the
steering gear box centering port using a 3/8”
wrench. See Figure 6A.8.
1b. Thread a 1/4”-20x2” bolt into the steering
box centering port until you feel it touch the
steering rack.
1c. While trying to gently thread the bolt further,
slowly rotate the steering shaft back and
forth until the bolt seats into the detent in the
steering rack.
1d. Finger tighten the screw to set the screw
fully into the detent. The steering gear box is
now centered and locked. See Figure 6A.9.
2. Jack the tractor up so that both rear wheels are
off of the ground. Place a pair of jack stands
under the rear transmissions.
See Figure 6A.10.
