CAUTION
When adjusting, set at the highest value of the
standard value range.
NOTE: If the total pinion toque cannot be adjusted
to the standard value within the specified return
angle, check the rack support cover components
and replace any parts if necessary.

outside the standard value, move the rack support
cover 0 − 30°, and adjust the pinion torque again.
>>L<< TAB WASHER/TIE ROD
INSTALLATION
After installing the tie rod to the rack, fold tab washer
end (two locations) to tie rod notch.
>>M<< BELLOWS BAND INSTALLATION
1. Turn the adjusting bolt of special tool boot band
crimping tool (MB991561) to adjust the opening
dimension (W) to the standard value.
NOTE: The dimension (W) is adjusted by
approximately 0.7 mm per one turn.
NOTE: Do not turn the adjusting bolt more than
one turn.
Standard value (W): 2.9 mm: Screw in the
adjusting bolt.
: Loosen the
adjusting bolt.
CAUTION
•Hold the rack housing, and use special tool to
crimp the bellows band securely.
•Crimp the bellows band until special tool
touches the stopper.
2. Use special tool boot band crimping tool
(MB991561) to crimp the bellows band.
3. Check that crimped width (A) is within the
standard value.
Standard value (A): 2.4 − 2.8 mm
: Readjust the
dimension (W) of step (1) to the value
calculated by the following equation, and
repeat step (2).
W = 5.5 mm − A [Example: if (A) is 2.9 mm,
(W) is 2.6 mm.]
: Remove the
bellows band, readjust the dimension (W) of
step (1) to the value calculated by the
following equation, and use a new bellows
band to repeat steps (2) to (3).
W = 5.5 mm − A [Example: if (A) is 2.3 mm,
(W) is 3.2 mm.]
