Position the stabilizer pad (1) just off the ground.
Push tube assembly (2) inward so that the tube assembly contacts the pads toward the center of the machine.
By using a gauge or shims that are 1 mm (0.04 inch) thick, measure the clearance (3) between the tube assembly (2) and the pads on the outside of the frame.
If the gap is larger than 1 mm (0.04 inch), the pad must be shimmed.
Work on one side of the stabilizer at a time. Remove the two bolts (4) that are at the bottom of the frame on the outside of the frame.
Remove the retaining plate that is on the inside of the frame. The two bolts held the retaining plate in position.
Remove the wear pads. Clean the wear pads. Inspect the wear pads. Clean the location of the wear pads and inspect the location of the wear pads.
Install the wear pad. Install 126-5704 Shims so that the gap between the wear pad and the tube assembly (2) is no larger than 1 mm (0.04 inch). If you need to install more than seven of the 126-5704 Shims , replace the wear pad with the thickest wear pad that is available.
Install the internal retaining plate and the two bolts (4) . The torque for the bolts is 55 10 N m (40.0 8.0 lb ft).
In order to check free movement, raise the tube assembly (2) and lower the tube assembly. The tube assembly should not bind.
Repeat this procedure for the three other wear pads on the lower part of the frame.
