To understand "caster" think of a bicycle, the way that the front fork is raked out slightly, rather than being straight up and down. This would be "positive" caster. This will have an effect which will tend to cause the front wheels to run straight out in front of you. If there was no positive caster, or if you had negative caster, the wheels would behave very similar to the front wheels on a shopping cart. Camber can also be positive or negative, positive camber will result in the wheels on a common axle being closer together at the bottom than they are at the top. The caster and camber are built into a tractor axle, there is no adjustment provided, and the only way it would be out of adjustment is if it had become damaged in some way.
