The proper adjustment of front whee...has a definite bearing on safety. (Thank you, Keith Hardy, for putting these manuals on-line.)

I told Robin last night that if he posted his question in here he'd get a correct answer and probably even some factory specs and look! That's exactly what happened! Thanks for helping one of the new guys out by posting this for him, tclederman! ~Trev It's a sin to crush old tin...
