Installing the Motion Control

There are two positions to install the control levers: high
and low. Install the levers in the top and middle holes for
the high position. Install the levers in the middle and
bottom holes for the low position.
1. Remove the 4 bolts (3/8 x 1 inch) and 4 spring washers
(3/8 inch) which attach the motion control levers to the
control arm shafts for shipping (Fig. 4).
2. Place the levers (with the mounting plate toward the
rear) on the outside of the control arm shaft and secure
them with 4 bolts (3/8 x 1 inch) and 4 spring washers
(3/8 inch) (Fig. 4).
3. Position the lever so that the bolts are in the center of
the slots on the lever mounting plate and tighten until
snug.

5. If the ends of the levers hit against each other while in
the drive position (Fig. 5) (levers rotated in as far as
possible), make adjustments by moving the levers
outward to the neutral lock position and carefully bend
them outward. Move them back to the drive position
and check for clearance. Repeat if necessary.
