Suspension Adjustment

The shock assemblies (A, Figure 28) can be adjusted to allow
the operator to customize the ride according to operator's
weight and/or operating conditions.

The front shocks can be adjusted by changing the spring pre-
load.
The rear shocks can be adjusted by changing the spring pre-
load and/or the upper mounting position.
A spanner wrench (B) was included with the literature packet
that came with this unit. There are two ends on it. The smaller
end is used on the front shock and the larger end is used on
the rear shock.
Items to consider before adjusting the suspension:
• Less spring pre-load should be used with light weight
operators, which will provide a softer, more cushioned
ride.
• More spring pre-load should be used with heavy weight
operator's , which will provide a stiffer, more rigid ride.
• There are two positions in which the upper mount of the
rear shock can be positioned in. If adjusting the spring
pre-load does not achieve the ride requirement, the shock
should be moved to upper shock mounting position #2 to
achieve the desired ride requirement.
• Before adjusting the upper shock mount to upper shock
mounting position #2, you should attempt to achieve the
ride height through the spring pre-load adjustment.
• Shock mounting position #2 should always be used when
a rear mounted grass collection system is installed on the
unit.
