Adjusting the Front Wheel Alignment

Preparing to Adjust Camber or Toe-in

  1. Check the tire pressure to ensure that the front tires are properly inflated.

  2. Either add weight to the driver's seat equal to the average operator who will run the machine, or have an operator sit on the seat. The weight or operator must remain on the seat for the duration of the adjustment procedure.

  3. On a level surface, roll the machine straight back 2 to 3 m (6 to 10 ft) and then straight forward to the original starting position. This allows the suspension to settle into the operating position.

Adjusting the Camber

Owner provided tools: spanner wrench, Toro Part No. 132-5069; refer to your Authorized Service Dealer.

Important: Make the camber adjustments only if you are using a front attachment or if there is uneven tire wear.

  1. Check the camber alignment at each wheel; the alignment should be as close to neutral (zero) as possible.

    Note: The tires should be aligned with the tread evenly on the ground to reduce uneven wear.

  2. If the wheel camber is out of alignment, use the spanner wrench to rotate the collar on the shock absorber to align the wheel (Figure 20).

Adjusting the Front Wheel Toe-in

Important: Before adjusting toe-in, ensure that the camber adjustment is as close to neutral as possible; refer to Adjusting the Camber.

  1. Measure the distance between both of the front tires at the axle height at both the front and rear of the front tires (Figure 21).

    g009235

    Figure 21

    1. Tire center line—back
    2. Tire center line—front
    3. Axle center line

  2. If the measurement does not fall within 0 to 6 mm (0 to 1/4 inch), loosen the jam nuts at the outer end of the tie rods (Figure 22).

    g033219

    Figure 22

    1. Tie rod
    2. Jam nut

  3. Rotate both tie rods to move the front of the tire inward or outward.

  4. Tighten the tie rod jam nuts when the adjustment is correct.

  5. Ensure that there is full travel of the steering wheel in both directions.

Installing the New Dipstick Tube

Parts needed for this procedure:

Dipstick tube1

  1. Park the machine on a level surface, engage the parking brake, shut off the engine, and remove the key.

  2. Raise the cargo bed to the service position by pulling the prop rod into the service position detent slot to secure the bed before installation.

    g034021

    Figure 23

    1. Service position detent slot
    2. Prop rod
    3. Dump position detent slot

  3. Remove the bolt securing the old dipstick tube, then remove the old dipstick tube.

    Note: Dispose the used engine oil at a certified recycling center.

  4. Thoroughly clean the new dipstick tube and side cover for the dipstick tube.

  5. Apply the Loctite sealant onto the end of the new dipstick tube.

    Important: Ensure that the Loctite completely cures before continuing. Follow the instructions from Loctite.

  6. Install the new dipstick tube using the previously removed bolt.

  7. Torque the bolt to 11 N•m (100 in-lb).

    g440570

    Figure 24

    1. Dipstick tube
    g440571

    Figure 25

  8. Check the engine-oil level and verify that there are no leaks.

    Note: The best time to check the engine oil is when the engine is cool before it has been started for the day. If you have already run the engine, allow the oil to drain back down to the sump for at least 10 minutes before checking. If the oil level is low, add oil to bring the oil level to the Full mark. Do not overfill.

    Note: The engine-oil dipstick is only accurate when the vehicle is unloaded.

Applying the Decal

Parts needed for this procedure:

Decal 140-25841

Align the decal with the bottom, right edge of warning decal 131-8414 and apply decal 140-2584 (Figure 26).
