Steering and Pitch Control 7.9 CRT Repair Electric Steering System Background See Graphic: wc_gr003372 Movement of the trowel is dependent on the angle of the gearboxes. The actuators are the mechanical devices which adjust the angle of each gearbox. An electric motor mounted to each actuator spins and as it does it turns the actuator’s main drive screw in or out. This movement of the actuator’s main drive screw changes the angle of the gearbox.

Threadlockers and Sealants Threadlockers and Sealants Threadlocking adhesives and sealants are specified throughout this manual by a notation of “S” plus a number (S#) and should be used where indicated. Threadlocking compounds normally break down at temperatures above 175°C (350°F). If a screw or bolt is hard to remove, heat it using a small propane torch to break down the sealant. When applying sealants, follow instructions on container. The sealants listed are recommended for use on Wacker equipment.
