Adjusting the Motion Control
Linkage
Located on either side of the fuel tank, below the seat are
the pump control linkages. Rotating the pump linkage
with a 1/2 inch wrench allows fine tuning adjustments
so that the machine does not move in neutral. Any
adjustments should be made for neutral positioning only.
WARNING
Engine must be running and drive wheels must
be turning so motion control adjustment can be
performed. Contact with moving parts or hot
surfaces may cause personal injury.
Keep fingers, hands, and clothing clear of rotating
components and hot surfaces.
1. Prior to starting the engine, push the deck lift pedal
and remove the height of cut pin. Lower deck to
the ground.
2. Raise the rear of machine up and support with jack
stands (or equivalent support) just high enough to
allow drive wheels to turn freely.
3. Remove the electrical connection from the seat
safety switch, located under the bottom cushion of
the seat. The switch is a part of the seat assembly.
