2.11 TOE-ALIGNMENT
1. Place machine on a smooth level surface.
2. Set handlebars in a straight ahead position
and secure handlebars in this position.
NOTE:
The steering arm can be used as an
indicator of whether the handlebars are
straight. The arm should always point
straight back from the steering post.
3. Place a chalk mark on the center line of the
front tires approximately10” (25.4cm) from
the floor or as close to the hub/axle center
line as possible.
NOTE:
It is important that
the height of both marks be equally
positioned in order to get an accurate
measurement.
4. Measure the distance between the marks
and record the measurement. Call this
measurement “A”.
5. Rotate the tires 180
°by moving vehicle
forward or backward. Position chalk marks
facing rearward, even with the hub/axle
centerline.
6.
Again measure the distance between the marks
and record. Call this measurement “B”.
Subtract measurement “B” from
measurement “A”. The difference between
measurements “A” and “B” is the
vehicle toe alignment. The recommended
vehicle toe tolerance is 1/8” to 1/4” (0.3 to
0.6 cm) toe out. This means the measurement
at the front of the tire (A) is 1/8” to 1/4”
(0.3 to 0.6 cm) wider than the measurement at
the rear (B).
