8.4.2. Check of a side play of steering

The side play of steering can be adjusted if it is not a consequence of malfunction. Adjustment of a side play should be carried out on STOA which has the corresponding measuring device for this operation.

SEQUENCE OF WORKS
1. Establish wheels directly.
2. Through an open side window rotate a wheel in both parties.
3. Forward wheels have to move synchronously. At the same time it is better to look at a disk as tires can smooth a part of rotary effort due to elasticity.
4. If in direct situation the side play is absent, but there is a jamming at strong turn, the gear lath is worn-out. In this case replacement of the steering mechanism is necessary.
