STEERING ASSEMBLY

PUSHER ADJUSTMENT

SETTING OF THE ADJUSTMENT WASHERS THICKNESS

The thickness of the adjustment washers shall be measured for the lowest point of the

rack, so that a pre compression of the washer is obtained:

E = ( D + 0,06 mm ) - H

E - washers thickness;

D - the distance above the pusher;

H - the free height of the elastic washer;

0,06 - pre compression of the washer.

In order to obtain an adequate thickness

which may be obtained from the existing

washers, diminish the calculated value by

0,04 mm.

On remounting, place the elastic washer (2) in contact with the pusher (5) and the

adjustment washers (4), in contact with the cap (1).

Observe the mounting sense of the elastic washer.

Place the set of washers, established by measurement above the pusher.

HECKING

Place the set of the washers, established by measurement, above the pusher.

Measure the distance between the pusher

and the adjustment washers; this distance

should be equal to the free height of the elastic

washer, minus 0.02-0.06mm.

If this value is not obtained, measure again.

Dismount the comparator support.

Remove the adjustment washers.

Put special grease, containing MoS2, in the

seat.

Remount:

- the elastic washer;

- the adjustment washers;

- the cap.

Tighten the cap attachment screws at the

required moment.
