14. Pull the front wheel with both hands on the upper and lower edges - the presence of any noticeable play indicates a weakening / damage to the wheel bearing or suspension components. Ask an assistant to firmly depress the foot brake pedal and repeat the check - if the play disappears or decreases to a minimum level, therefore, the bearing should be dealt with, otherwise check the condition of the joints of the suspension components.
15. Grasp the front and rear edges of the wheel and repeat the check described above - if the play disappears when the brake pedal is depressed, tighten or replace the wheel bearing, otherwise check the condition of the steering gear components (see paragraph 11).
