When the machine is used without the grassbox fitted, the
balance bar (Fig. 39), fitted at the base of the handle, must be
removed and fitted to the grassbox arms.

7.11 SEAT (STEERING SEAT) _______________________________________________

The seat is adjustable forwards or backwards.
(a) Release setscrews underneath mounting and slide seat
to required position.
(b) Re tighten screws after adjusting.

7.12 STEERING CONTROL CABLE (STEERING SEAT) ___________________________

The cable should be kept taut without overstraining and the
adjusters (A) at the rear of the machine should be used for
this purpose.
If adjustment is found necessary, tighten or slacken the
locknuts (B) to suit.
Whilst every care must be taken to ensure the cable is tight,
the relationship between the steering bar and the rear roll
must be maintained, ie. When the steering bar is straight
across the machine the rear roll should be in the straight
ahead position.
