a) Set the front wheels in the straight-ahead position.
b) Make sure that the spiral cable is in the neutral position.
The neutral position is detected by turning left 2.5 revolutions
from the right end position. Align the two marks (
).
CAUTION:
The spiral cable may snap due to steering operation if the
cable is installed in an improper position.
Also, with the steering linkage disconnected, the cable may
snap by turning the steering wheel beyond the limited number
of turns. (The spiral cable can be turned up to 2.5 turns from
the neutral position to both the right and left.)
