Transmission Control
IMPORTANT: The proper adjustment of the tran-
saxle control stops is essential for efficient opera-
tion and life of the transaxle. These stops are prop-
erly ad justed at the factory and should only require
read justment if the transaxle or related control link-
age is removed or changed.
NOTE: It would not be unusual for a new machine,
after initial 5 or 10 hours of operation, to begin to not
travel straight (this is due to the break-in of the tran-
saxles).
Step 1 - Steering Lever Position Adjustment
NOTE: For proper operation, the steering levers
should be adjusted to sit evenly using the following
procedure.
1.
Examine the steering levers to make sure they
are parallel front to back in relation to one an-
other. If they are not equal, adjust accordingly.
(The handles may or may not be even at this
point.)
NOTE: The LH steering lever is non-adjust-
able. This procedure will require adjustment of
the RH lever to make it even with the LH lever.

Adjust the position of the RH lever by turning the
stop bolt in the Speed Control Actuator in or out.
Turning the stop bolt in will make the RH lever
move back, and turning it out will make it move
forward. Tighten the locknut.

Step 2 - Steering Handles Adjustment
1.
An adjustment range of approximately 3 in.
(76.2 mm) is available on the steering handles -
the handles can be adjusted forward or aft
depending on the arm length of the operator.
The handles can be adjusted by loosening the
locknut at the pivot point and the locknut holding
the handle in position in the adjustment slide.
Adjust the handles into the most comfortable
position and tighten both locknuts.
