Check the oil seal of the stop collar assy.
Refer to Illustration 16

Check (3): Inspect if there is flake or indention
on the working surface of the oil seal 30 of the
stop collar assy and damage on the lip. Examine
if there is scratch on the inner surface of the
housing 34 and damage on the O rubber ring 28.
Replace the oil seal, housing or O rubber ring, if
necessary. Apply the white special grease on the
inner and outer surface when install a new one.

Valve core assy

Check (4): Inspect if there is crack, damage,
flake or deformation on the rack surface of the
pinion shaft of the valve core assy 13. Replace
the valve core, if necessary. Examine if there is
damage on the seal ring 8 of the valve core assy.
Replace with a new one, if necessary. Remove the
seal ring with a screwdriver when replace.

Precaution: Do not damage the valve bush.
Enlarge the new seal ring with a special
purpose tool and install the enlarged one on
the valve bush of the valve core assy and then
shape it with a set sleeve.

Check the conical connectors which are
connected with the hull assy (Refer to
Illustration 18)

Check (5): Inspect if there is scratch or damage
on the surface of the conical connectors 16 and 18
which are connected with the hull and the oil
reservoir connectors. Replace with a new one, if
necessary. When replace, remove the conical
connector with a special purpose tool and beat
lightly a new one with a plastic hammer.

Assemblage of the Steering Mechanism

Preparation:

Clean all components in clean organic solvents before assemblage, then dry them with a

blower

Precaution: Be careful during operation. The organic solvent is flammable and

explosive, keep it away from any tiny sparks. Otherwise, it may lead hurt
or even death.

Precaution: Make sure to wear the goggles while using the compressed air.

Lay the clean components separately and avoid the collision or scratch.

Replace all the oil seal, seal loop and seal ring. Apply the white special grease on the
O-ring and oil seal of the seal sections.

Get the replacing components ready every component must be qualified before

assemblage.

Precaution: When replace, all the set bolt, adjusting screw, seal component, lock nut

and the other components must be conformed to the technical specification
of Chery and can not be substituted arbitrarily.

Get the clean MoS

2

Lithium lubricating grease or the same performance grease ready

during assembling.

Precaution: If the unclean grease is used, the seal components would be damaged or

scratched, which will impact the steering power and result in accidents.

Assemblage

Precaution: Do not twist any seal components during assembling.

Lithium lubricating grease on

the slot area of the rack holder 23

·Install the rack holder 23 into the hull oil
reservoir assy 17.

·Install the spring 22.

·Screw the adjusting plug 21 into the hull oil
cylinder assy with a special purpose tool and
screw back 30º-40 º.

·Screw the lock nut 20 on the adjusting plug.

·Install the limiting plug of the rack end.

·Apply the 5242 sealant on 1/4 circle thread of the hexagon flange bolt 24 and screw it to the
specified position of the pinion shaft. The tightening torque is 20~30N.m

·Screw the plug cap 26 1-2 threads, then apply proper quantities 5242 sealant onto the thread
of the plug cap and fix it into the hull. The torque is 35~45N.m.

Illustration 24

Illustration 23

· Install the new conical connectors 18 and 16
on the ends of the left oil tube assy 19 and
right oil tube assy 27.

·Tighten the left and right oil tube assy with the
tightening torque of 15~25N.m

Assembling and adjustmentRefer to
Illustration 24

·Adjust the adjusting plug 21 with a special
purpose tool.

· Cover the input shaft with the crank handle
and rotate it to feel if it turns smoothly.

·Apply the 5242 sealant on the 1/4 circle thread
of the adjusting plug 21 which is close to the
hull, fix the adjusting plug and screw the lock
nut 20 with the tightening torque of 40~50N.m


If it is easy to adjust the lock nut of the rack holder, it is not required to remove the

steering gear from the vehicle. Therefore the adjustment can be completed on vehicle.


a)Check the clearance

Pull the steering tie rod to make it swing back and forth by hand to ensure that there is no
clearance between the rack and the pinion shaft.

Hint: It is not needed to adjust it if it is normal during the check.

b) Adjust the lock nut of the rack holder to eliminate the clearance

If there is the clearance, loosen the lock nut 18 and screw the adjusting plug 19 clockwise
until the clearance can not be felt between the rack 29 and the pinion shaft. Screw the
adjusting plug 19 back about 30º~40 º, and then apply the 5242 sealant on the lock nut 18 and
screw it with the tightening torque of 40~50N .m.
