Setting The Hydraulic Pump Neutral - Toro 74256 Operator's Manual

Note: Motion control levers must be installed correctly.
See Installing the Motion Control Levers in the set up
instructions.
1. Disengage the PTO, move the motion control levers to
the neutral locked position and set the parking brake.
2. Stop the engine, remove the key, and wait for all
moving parts to stop before leaving the operating
position.
3. Unlatch the seat and tilt the seat forward.
4. Begin with either the left or right motion control lever.
5. Move the lever to the neutral position but not locked
(Fig. 57).
6. Pull lever back until the clevis pin (on arm below pivot
shaft) contacts the end of the slot (just beginning to put
pressure on the spring) (Fig. 57).
7. Check where the control lever is relative to notch in
console (Fig. 56). It should be centered allowing lever
to pivot outward to the neutral lock position.

the pin at the end of the slot and allow the adjustment bolt
to move the lever to the appropriate position.
