The steering gear housing is fixed rigidly and the rack is set to the middle position, which is determined by the size (115±0,25) mm (pic. 114) from the pinion axle to the end of the rack. With the help of a special device, the rail is loaded with a force of P \u003d 500±20N, placing the punch of the device on the horizontal section of the rail (point of transition of the cylindrical part into the teeth). The maximum allowable travel of the X rail on the 80 mm arm must not exceed 0.6 mm (tentatively, up to a set of statistical data).
