Positioning the Seat
The seat can move forward and backward. Position the seat
where you have the best control of the machine and are
most comfortable.
1. Raise the seat and loosen the adjustment knobs enough
to move the seat (Fig. 11).
Important
Make sure that the spacers stay in place
when loosening the knobs to move the seat. Loss of the
spacers can result in damage to the seat.

knobs.
