SECTION IV WHEELS
Running direction of tires
Tyres must always be fitted so
that the tread pattern is oriented
correctly with respect to the
direction of forward travel. In the
case of wheels where the rim is
welded to the wheel disc, the left
and right wheels may be
swapped over to alter the track
width; in all cases, however, the
V-shaped tread pattern must
always point towards the front of
the tractor, as shown in the figure
above.
Note: approved tyre combinations: in each market, only the approved
combinations for the specific zone are available.
Adjusting steering stops
After every change of the front tyres, check the steering angle.
Procedure:
Operate parking brake
•
Additionally secure tractor
against rolling (wheel chock)
•
In the case of tractors with
suspended front axle, dis-
connect front axle suspen-
sion
•
Jack up tractor at its front
•
Turn steering wheel (to left
and right).
•
Adjustment of the steering
angle.
When the front axle is in the condition of maximum oscillation and the
wheels are turned to the maximum steering angle, there must be no
interference between the fenders and engine hood. If necessary, adjust
the internal angle.
