INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER and all other models, component parts are available and can be purchased separately. On Models B-275 and B-414, correct toe-in of 1/4 to 3/8 inch is obtained by loosening the tie-rod clamps and rota- ting tie-rod either way as required. If necessary, adjust the drag link in a similar manner until there is equal contact at the stops when front wheels are turned full left and full right. The correct toe-in for Models 354, 364, 414 , 2424 and 2444 is 3/16 to 5/16 inch and 0 to 1/16 inch for Model 384. Both tie - rods must be adjusted equally so that full left and full right turning radius of the tractor will be the same. from drop (Pitman) arm, then unbolt and remove steering gear assembly from tractor. With assembly removed as outlined, vary shims under worm shaft end cap (15-Fig. 8) to provide zero end play of the worm shaft. Shims are available in thicknesses of 0.0024, 0.005 and 0.010. 7. ADJUST ROCKER SHAFT. Steer- ing gear assembly need not be removed to adjust rocker end play.

For information pertaining to the steering gear assembly , which is the same as that used on models with no power steering , refer to paragraphs 6 through 9. Series 424-444 - 2424-2444 13. A full time (Hydrostatic) power steering system is used on this series. Refer to Figs. 14 and 15 for a schematic view showing the general layout of components and tubing for the system. NOTE: The maintenance of absolute cleanliness of all parts is of utmost importance in the operation and ser. vicing of the hydraulic power steering system . Of equal importance is the avoidance of nicks or burrs on any of the working parts. The power steering system is com- posed of the following components: An engine driven gear type pump, a flow divider valve, a spool type directional control valve, a gerotor type pump on the steering wheel shaft and two ram type single acting steering cylinders on models equipped with the standard axle (Fig. 4) or the heavy duty axle (Fig. 6) and one double acting cylinder on models equipped with narrow tread front axle (Fig. 5). 9

Paragraphs 14-16 LUBRICATION AND BLEEDING Series B-414 - 424-444-2424- 2444 - 354-364-384 14. The hydraulic lift housing serves as the fluid reservoir for both the power steering system and the hydraulic lift system. Capacity of the reservoir is 3.0 gallons. Recommended fluid is IH "Hy-Tran" fluid. To bleed the power steering system on B-414, 354, 364 and 384 tractors, fill reservoir to bottom of filler hole, start engine and cycle the steering system from lock to lock position until all air is bled from system. Recheck fluid level in reservoir and add fluid as required. On Models 424, 444, 2424 and 2444, fill reservoir to proper level and then, start engine and run at low idle speed. Rotate steering wheel (hand pump) as rapidly as possible in order to activate the control valve and continue to rotate the steering wheel until the front wheels reach the stop in the direction in which the steering wheel is being turned. Now quickly reverse the direction of steering wheel and follow same procedure until front wheels reach stop in opposite direction. Continue to turn front wheels from lock to lock until steering wheel has no wheel spin (free wheeling) and has a solid feel with no skips or sponginess. Check and add fluid to reservoir, if necessary. TROUBLESHOOTING Series B-414 . 354-364-384 15.
