DRAG LINK
This type of drag link requires very little care
other than periodical lubrication and occasional
inspection to make Figure that it is properly adjusted,
Fig. 16.
Adjustment is made by removing cotter pin and
turning adjusting plug in the desired direction. To adjust
for wear, turn adjusting plug in until it is tight then back
off to first cotter pin hole. Insert a new cotter pin of the
correct size and bend ends over securely. Drag link
should not be adjusted too tightly, otherwise steering will
be affected. The spring is merely to accommodate wear
and is not intended to act as a cushion against shock.
