Description

General

This section has the description and repair procedures for the steering axle. For information on other parts of
the steering system, see the section Steering System 1600 SRM 1109.

Description

The steering axle assembly includes an axle housing,
steering cylinder, tie rods, tie rod pins, and two spin-
dle and hub assemblies. See Figure 1. The steering
axle mounts to the frame with a center pivot pin. The
center pivot pin permits the steering axle to move as
the lift truck travels over rough surfaces.

The steering cylinder mounts to the axle housing
with four bolts. The ends of the piston rod extend
from both ends of the cylinder. A single piston and

the seal are at the center of the rod. Oil pressure on
one side of the piston moves the piston in the bore.
As the piston moves, it pushes an equal amount of
oil from the opposite end of the cylinder. The oil
returns to the steering control unit.

When the piston in the cylinder reaches the end of
the stroke, a relief valve limits the oil pressure so
the components are not damaged. The relief valve is
located in the flow amplifier.

Tie rods connect the steering cylinder to the spindles.
A king pin supports the spindle in the axle housing.
Each spindle turns on two bushings and thrust wash-
ers. Covers on the top and bottom of the axle housing
protect the king pins and bushings from dirt and wa-
ter.

The wheel hub rotates on two tapered roller bearings.
An adjustment nut sets the preload on the bearings.
Grease seals in the inner hub and a cover on the hub
protect the bearings from dirt and water.

How to Put Lift Truck on Blocks

HOW TO LIFT STEER TIRES

WARNING

The lift truck must be put on blocks for some
types of maintenance and repair.

The sur-

face must be solid, even, and level when the
lift truck is put on blocks.

Verify that any

blocks used to support the lift truck are solid,
one-piece units. Verify the lifting devices used
during repairs can lift the weight of the parts
and assemblies.

CAUTION

Do not place blocks under fuel or hydraulic
hoses.

1.

Apply the parking brake.

Put blocks on both

sides (front and back) of the drive tires to pre-
vent movement of the lift truck. See Figure 2.

2.

Use a hydraulic jack to raise the steering tires.
Verify that the jack has a capacity of at least 2/3
of the total weight of the lift truck [approximately
73,900 kg (162,900 lb)] as shown on the name-
plate. Put the jack under the steering axle or
frame to lift the lift truck. Put blocks under the
frame to support the lift truck.
