SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENTS

INSTRUCTIONS FOR ADJUSTING POWER STEERING CABLES (See Figs. 30-35)

Power steering cables can be adjusted to improve perfor- mance of steering system. The cable has an in-line adjuster that can be turned to shorten or lengthen the cable exten- sion. Location of adjuster is shown in figure 30.

NOTE: Figure 34 shows the bellcrank positioned correctly. The bottom of the bellcrank is horizontal, in a position paral- lel to the top of the steering clutch. The steering yoke top edge is in line with the middle of the flat vertical surface of the bellcrank. Figure 35 shows an end view of the bellcrank in the correct position.

NOTE: The position of the steering bellcrank is critical in the operation of the steering system. If it is positioned too high, the steering system will automatically disengage itself while driving, giving the operator the impression of wheel slippage. If the bellcrank is positioned too low, it may be very difficult to disengage the steering clutch while driving, or it may also disengage itself. The correct setting of the bellcrank will give optimum performance.

NOTE: Figure 32 shows the bellcrank positioned too high, causing clutch to disengage while driving and giving appearance of wheel slip.
