Brake Adjustment

1. Shut off engine and wait for all moving parts to
stop.
2. Disengage the park brake.
3. Remove the hairpin in the park brake linkage.
Turn the linkage in the yoke until there is 3/16
inch (4.8 mm) to 1/4 inch (6.4 mm) clearance
between the park brake tire bars and the tires with
the park brake disengaged. Re-install the hairpin.
Speed Control Linkage
and Neutral Safety Switch
Adjustment
1. Stop engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, and
remove key. Engage parking brake.
2. Move speed control lever (located on console) to
the full forward position and check orientation of
tabs on the ends of the speed control crank, see
Figure 14. These tabs should be pointing straight
down at the 6 o'clock position or slightly forward.
Adjust threaded yoke at the bottom of speed
control linkage until tabs are positioned correctly.
See Figure 14.
3. Pull speed control lever back to neutral. Check
that the neutral safety switch actuating tab has
depressed the plunger of the switch so that there
is about 5/16 inch (7.9 mm) between the tab and
the switch as shown in Figure 14. If necessary,
move the switch fore and aft.

Neutral Control Linkages
Adjustment
1. Raise the rear of the machine up onto jack stands
high enough to raise the drive wheels off of the
ground.
2. Start the engine and move the throttle ahead to
the full throttle position. Place the neutral lock
latches in the "forward" position as shown in
Figure 4 and move the speed control lever to the
"mid-speed" position.
Note: The park brake must be disengaged and
the OPC levers must be held down whenever the
speed control lever is out of the neutral position
or the engine will kill.
3. Squeeze the respective drive lever until an
increased resistance is felt; this is where neutral
should be.
If the wheel turns while holding the drive lever in
neutral, the neutral control linkages need to be
adjusted. If wheels stop then go to step 7.
4. Loosen the nut against the neutral control linkage
yoke as shown in Figure 15
