50.
Ensure timing marks on sector shaft (3) and steering gear assembly (1) are aligned. If not, turn input shaft (2) with 19
mm deep well socket to align timing marks.
WARNING
Do not rotate input shaft more than 1-1/2 turns from center position. Doing so will incorrectly set poppets,
causing steering problems resulting in possible injury to personnel.
51.
Loosen nut (7).
52.
Tighten adjusting screw (11) so that input shaft (2) requires torque of 45-50 lb-in (5.1-5.6 Nm) to turn 180 degrees from
center in both directions.
53.
Back off adjusting screw (11) ½ turn and note torque required to turn input shaft (2) 180 degrees from center in both
directions.
54.
Tighten adjusting screw (11) so that torque required to turn input shaft (2) 180 degrees from center in both directions
increases 6-8 lb-in (0.68-0.90 Nm) from reading noted in step 53.
55.
Hold adjusting screw (11) firmly against steering gear assembly (1) and tighten nut (7) to 40-45 lb-ft (54-61 Nm).
56.
Check torque reading on input shaft (2). If reading exceeds 40 lb-in (4.5 Nm), repeat steps 51 through 56.
