Reparation instructions
Detach the articulation spring. This spring is
heavily tensioned and should be offloaded using
tool 506 89 93-01 before the bolt for the rear
bracket is removed.
Remove the inner circlip (1) from the lower bearing
(see diagram). The rear section is now loose and
can be moved. Then detach the outer circlip (2) and
take the bearing out downwards.
Take the upper bearing out upwards, if it does
not come out easily, it should be knocked out
from below.
Insert the new bearings and assemble the
articulated steering in the reverse removal order.
After re-assembly, the wire tension should be
checked (see Checking and adjusting steering
wires). Also check that the controls and wires
are correctly adjusted.
Check the setting of the neutral position switch
on machines with hydrostatic transmission, see
Electrical system\Microswitch neutral position.
WARNING!
The articulation spring is
strongly tensioned and can
cause injury if it flies off. Wear
safety glasses and gloves when
removing/attaching the spring.
