Changing The Seat Ride Suspension; Adjusting The Motion Control Levers - Toro 74914 Operator's Manual

Changing the Seat Ride
Suspension
The number of seat springs can be changed to
maximize rider comfort. More springs should be used
with heavier operators and on rough terrain. Fewer
springs should be used with lighter operators and when
mowing smooth, well established lawns. Always keep
the number of springs on the left and right side the
same when adding and removing springs.
