The steering stops are used to give the required steering
clearance between the front tyres and tractor frame.
The stops are located on the rear of each swivel housing.
The angles you can set the stops to depends upon:
- The size of the front tyres installed.
- The wheel tread width setting.
- If front fenders are installed.
- If the tractor is equipped with a front hitch.
IMPORTANT: NEVER operate the tractor without
the steering stops installed.
IMPORTANT: When installing a front loader check the
manufacturers recommendations for axle steering and
oscillation stops.

WARNING: Always use the specific PPE for the opera-
tion concerned.
STEP 1
Park the tractor on hard, level ground and apply the park
brake. Stop the engine and remove the key from the key
switch.
STEP 2
Loosen the lock nuts (1). Adjust the steering stop bolts (2)
in or out to achieve the correct steering angle.

on tractors equipped with Independent Front
Suspension make sure the key switch is in the
OFF position, the suspension ON/OFF switch
is in the OFF position and the axle is fully low-
ered to the bottom mechanical stop. Failure to
do this may result in serious injury.
IMPORTANT: After adjustment:

into maximum oscillation.
2. Start the engine and turn the steering wheel to full lock
in both directions.

DO NOT touch the tractor frame.
