Seat Adjustment; Ground Speed Control Lever Adjustment - Briggs & Stratton 5900660 Operator's Manual

Troubleshooting, Adjustments, & Service

Seat Adjustment

The seat and ground speed control levers should be
adjusted so that operator's elbows are supported by
the arm rests when his/her hands are on the controls,
and the ground speed control levers can be moved
through their full range of motion without contacting
the operator's legs.
Seat Position Adjustment
The seat can be adjusted forward and back. Move
the adjustment lever (A, Figure 30) towards the left
hand side of the machine, slide the seat to the desired
position, and release the lever.
Ground Speed Control Lever
Adjustment
The control levers can be adjusted in three ways. The
alignment of the control levers, the placement of the
levers (how close the ends are to one another) and
the height of the levers can be adjusted.
To Adjust the Handle Alignment: Loosen the mount
bolts (A, Figure 31) and pivot the lever(s) (C) to align
with each other.
To Adjust the Handle Placement: Loosen the jam
nuts and adjust the placement bolt (B, Figure 31) in or
out to properly adjust the lever end spacing.
To Adjust the Handle Height: Remove the mounting
hardware and reposition the handle either up or down
from its original position. You will need to readjust the
handle alignment as described above.
