Drive Wheel Assembly
Warning: Disconnect the battery connector before servicing
machine.
Warning: Never work under machine without safety stands
or blocking to support the machine.
The drive motor comes out of the machine as an assembly, including
the steering chain disk (10) and steering spindle (9). The bearing hub
(12) remains within the machine, as the mounting bolts (14) are not
accessible without removing the solution tank.
1. Turn off the key and disconnect the batteries.
2. To reduce the weight of the machine, drain both the recovery and
solution tanks. To lower the center of gravity of the machine, you
may even choose to remove the recovery tank from the machine.
3. Block both sides of the machine at the rear
lifting points (15) to keep the machine stable and
prevent it from rolling. To prevent tipping, it is
also a good idea to chain the machine down at the
rear lifting points.
4. Raise the front of the machine by jacking at the
center front ๎at surface of the solution tank.
5. If necessary, block the front of the machine at the
forward anchor points (16) so the jacking device
can be removed for easier access to components.
(The machine will be lowered and re-raised later
in the procedure.)
6. Remove one or both master links (23) from the
steering chain, and either remove the chain
completely, or free the chain from the steering
pinion gear (45).
