dimensions are equal.

Steering Angle Check and Adjustment
NOTE: Some of the following figures do not show the exact
axle used on your crane, but the procedure is the
same.
1. Use the same bars assembled for the toe-in adjustment,
page 8-5.
2. Steer the axle to maximum steering position.
3. Hold a long bar against the steering cylinder mounting
brackets on the axle (Figure 8-11), so that the two bars
form an acute angle.
4. Adjust a goniometer to 35° and position it on the long bar
(Figure 8-12).
5. Check the angle between the two bars. If not 35° adjust
the angle.
