Adjusting Motion Controls

Adjusting Handle Neutral
If motion control levers do not align, or move easily into
the console notch, adjustment is required. Adjust each
lever, spring and rod separately.
Note: Motion control levers must be installed correctly.
See Install Motion Control Levers on page 14.
1. Stop engine, remove ignition key and tilt seat forward.
2. Begin with either the left or right motion control lever.
Move lever to the neutral (but not locked) position and
pull lever back until the clevis pin (on arm below pivot
shaft) contacts the end of the slot (just beginning to put
pressure on spring) (Fig. 59).
3. Check where lever is relative to notch in console
(should be centered allowing lever to pivot outward to
the neutral lock position) (Fig. 58).

lever, turn the head of the adjustment bolt in the

will keep the pin at the end of the slot and allow the
adjustment bolt to move the lever to the appropriate
position) (Fig. 59).
