ADJUSTMENTS
Transmission Control
IMPORTANT: The proper adjustment of the trans-
mission control stops is essential for efficient oper-
ation and life of the transaxle. These stops are
properly adjusted at the factory and should only
require read justment if the transaxle or related
control linkage is removed or changed.
NOTE: It would not be unusual for a new machine,
after the initial 5 or 10 hours of operation, to begin
to not travel straight (this is due to the break-in of
the transmissions). To fine tune tracking, refer to
Step 4 - Straight Tracking Adjustment on page
66.
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 accord-
ingly. (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.
Lever Alignment
2.
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.
Levers should sit
parallel to each other

Step 2 - Steering Handle Adjustment
An adjustment range of approximately 3 in. (76
mm) is available on the steering handles—the
han dles 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 han dles into most
comfortable position and tighten both locknuts.
