2.2TIGHTENING TORQUES
0
The tightening torques stated in this section are
different from the standard tightening torques
included in the overview of standard tightening
torques. Any other threaded connections that
are not specified must therefore be tightened to
the tightening torque stated in the overview of
standard tightening torques.
When attachment bolts and nuts are to be
replaced, it is important - unless stated
otherwise - that these bolts and nuts are of
exactly the same length and property class as
the ones removed

Toe values are shown in the graph.
Note:
In the graph, the toe has a value of
0.5 ᐔ 1 mm/m toe-in at 75% of the permissible
loading weight. The axle load consists of the
unloaded axle weight + loading weight.

2.The toe is shown in mm/m on the left-hand
side of the graph. The values above the 0
line show toe-in values, indicated by the

3.The axle load (4) is shown at the bottom of
the graph.
4.The permitted toe at any axle load is
indicated by the shaded area (5) in the

5.If the measured value lies outside the
shaded area, the toe must be adjusted to
the value indicated by the continuous

Steering rod adjustment
The angle between the marks on the steering
box input shaft and the mark on the steering box
for adjusting the steering rod are shown in the
graph. This angle is shown with the wheels of
the front axle in the “straight ahead” position.
Explanation of graph
1.The axle type and the axle configuration (1)
is shown at the top of the graph.
2.The angle between the marks on the
steering box input shaft and the mark on the
steering box (2) are shown on the left-hand
side of the graph.
Note that there are two different graphs for
LHD and RHD vehicles.
3.The front axle load (3) is shown at the
bottom of the graph.
4.The permitted angle at any axle load is
indicated by the shaded area (4) in the
graph.
5.If the measured value lies outside the
shaded area (4), the angle must be
adjusted to the value indicated by the
continuous line (5). Set the correct angle by
screwing the ball end of the steering rod in
or out.
