© 200423 3-1 Inspection and adjustment STEERING GEAR, GENERAL ΧΦ65/75/85 series 7 2 3. INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT 3.1 INSPECTION OF THE STEERING GEAR USING A PRESSURE GAUGE Note: A quick check of the steering gear can be carried out using a pressure gauge. To this end, the same pressure gauge can be used as for the adjustment of the wheel deflection limiting valves. A pressure gauge allows you to carry out only a limited number of measurements. To test the steering pump (output in l/min. at a certain pressure) and the steering box condition (internal sealing, plays) you will need a test equipment case. If the cause of the problem cannot be found using the pressure gauge, the steering gear should be diagnosed using the test case. After having turned the steering wheel with a torque wrench with a dial, always check the tightening torque of the steering wheel nut. Items requiring special attention when Clean the delivery line connection that is going to be disconnected. 2. Check the steering box attachment. 3. Check the hydraulic central position. 4. Place proper turning plates under the vehicle's steerable wheels. Block the vehicle so that it cannot slide off the jack or the turning plates. } } |
