Adjusting Mowing Speed
Reference Position
The mowing speed reference position is a spring
loaded stop that can be felt, as extra spring force
when, pushing motion controls forward. The motion
control levers return to this pre-set position when
forward pressure is reduced. Below the pre-set speed
the motion control levers remain in their placed
location. The reference position is factory set for
cutting grass at approximately 5 mph.
Adjusting Reference Speed
1.
Loosen nuts on stop bolt below control assembly
(Fig. 32).
2.
Thread bolt in to decrease pre-set speed or out to
increase speed. Tighten nuts to hold new set
position.
3.
Repeat adjustment on other control stop bolt
adjusting as close to the same length as possible.
4.
Test drive the unit to evaluate reference speed
and note location of traction control levers. If
levers are not at the same position against stops,
turn longest bolt in to make them the same.

Adjusting Reference Stop Spring Tension
The resistance felt against the traction control levers
can be adjusted to make the feel less or more
sensitive.
1.
To adjust tension loosen nuts on the eye bolts
holding the springs to mounting plate (Fig. 32).
2.
To reduce tension thread nuts off eye bolts
(Fig. 32). Tighten nuts to hold new set position.
3.
To increase tension thread nuts onto eye bolts
(Fig. 32). Tighten nuts to hold new set position.
Note:
Adjust springs to the same length so
tension will be the same on both
motion control levers.
4.
If greater tension is desired, the front hook of the
springs can be moved to the outer hole in the
control assemblies (Fig. 32).
