Controls System
Maintenance
The factory adjusts the controls before shipping the machine.
However, after many hours of use, you may need to adjust
the traction control alignment, the neutral position of the
traction control, and the tracking of the traction control in the
full forward position.
Important: To adjust the controls properly, complete
each procedure in the order listed.
Adjusting the Traction Control
Alignment
If the traction control bar does not rest flush and square
with the reference bar when in the full backward position,
immediately complete the following procedure:
1. Park the machine on a flat surface and lower the boom.
2. Stop the engine and remove the key.
3. Pull straight back on the traction control so the front
of the control contacts the reference bar (Figure 52).
