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.

The engine must be running and the drive
wheels must be turning so that you can
perform the motion-control adjustment.
Contact with moving parts or hot surfaces

Keep your fingers, hands, and clothing clear
of rotating components and hot surfaces.

jack stands (or equivalent support) just high
enough to allow the drive wheels to turn freely.

safety switch, located under the bottom cushion
