STEERING ADJUSTMENT
 
If steering system feels loose, ensure hardware is tight 
and check wear points for excessive wear. Replace parts 
as needed.
If tractor wanders or excessive tire wear develops, toe-in 
should be checked. Front of wheels should be 1/16 in. to 
1/8 in. (2 to 3 mm) closer together than rear of wheels. To 
correct toe-in:
1. Loosen jam nuts at tie rod ends.
2. Turn tie rod clockwise to increase distance between 
front of wheels. Turn tie rod counterclockwise to 
decrease distance between front of wheels.
3. Tighten jam nuts at tie rod ends.
 
PARKING BRAKE SPRING
 
Compress the spring to the length indicated with the 
brake on (Park Brake Set). Turn the locknut to adjust 
(figure 14).
 
DISC BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
 
To check and change disc brake setting (figure 15):
1. Place feeler gauge between the two discs. With

0.015 in. to 0.025 in. (0.4 mm to 0.6 mm) clearance.
2. Tighten castellated nut to decrease clearance, 
loosen to increase clearance.
3. Adjust brake spring. Turn nylon locknut until brake 
spring is compressed to 7/8 in. (22 mm) when brake 
pedal is depressed.
