Adjusting the Brakes
Check the brake adjustment daily. If the brake pedal travels
more than 1 inch (2.54 cm) before you feel resistance,
adjust the brakes as follows.
1. Position the sprayer on a level surface, stop the pump,
stop the engine, and remove the ignition key.
2. Release the parking brake if it is set.
3. Loosen the front nuts on the brake cables under the
front end of the sprayer (Fig. 44).

4. Tighten the rear nuts equally until the brake pedal
moves between 1/2 to 1 inch (1 to 2 cm) before
resistance is felt (Fig. 44).
Important Ensure that you tighten both rear nuts
equally so that the threaded ends of the brake cables in
front of the front nuts are the same length.
5. Tighten the front nuts.

Adjusting the Front Wheel
Toe-In
Check the front wheel toe-in after every 200 operating
hours, or annually, whichever occurs first. The toe-in
should be 1/8 to 1/4 inch (0 to 6 mm).
1. Check and fill all tires; refer to Checking Tire Pressure,
page 13.
2. Measure the distance between both of the front tires at
the axle height at both the front and rear of the front
tires (Fig. 46).
The front of the tires should be 1/8 to 1/4 inch (3 to
6 mm) less than the back side of the front tires.
