Front Wheel Toe-in

If there is uneven tire wear, lawn scuffing, or hard
steering, toe-in may need to be adjusted. The front
toe-in measurement should be 1/8" to ¼" (3 to 6mm).
This should be checked every 100 hours or once a
year, whichever occurs first.
MEASUREMENT:
1. Disengage the PTO, set the parking brake, and
turn the ignition key to OFF to stop the engine.
Remove the key.
2. Push the front of the tires out to remove normal
looseness in the linkage (Figure 7).

3. Measure the distance between both the front rims
at spindle level, in front and rear of the wheels.
You can also measure between the tread mold
marks if the tires are new (Figure 8).

4. The front measurement should be 1/8" to ¼" (3 to
