Butt Joint Guide, 2 Wheel (See Figure A.9)
To assemble the butt joint guide,
• Support the Cruiser to remove weight from the front
wheels.
• Remove the front outrigger bar.
• Remove one of the front wheel assemblies by
removing the four bolts holding the wheel assembly
to the frame.
• Determine the number of spacer blocks required,
remove as necessary. The guide wheels should be
within 0.5 “ (12.7mm) of the weld wires when the
slides are at the mid position.
• Bolt the butt joint guide assembly to the frame,
using the set of holes that positions the guide
wheels as close as possible to the weld wires.
• Use the clamp to set the coarse vertical height. Set
the height so all three rubber wheels are touching
the ground when the butt joint guide is in the joint.
Tighten the clamp bolts to 25 ft-lbs (34 Nm)
• Use the fine vertical adjustment as necessary to
keep pressure on the guide wheels without lifting
the other rubber wheels off the ground.
