Adjusting the
Control-Handle Position
There are 2 height positions for the control
levers—high and low. Remove the bolts to adjust the
height for the operator.
1. Park the machine on a level surface, disengage
the blade-control switch, and engage the parking
brake.
2. Shut off the engine, remove the key, and wait
for all moving parts to stop before leaving the
operating position.
3. Loosen the bolts and flange nuts installed in the
levers (Figure 63).
4. Align the levers in the front-to-rear position by
bringing the levers together to the N
position, and slide them until they are aligned,
then tighten the bolts

Adjusting the
Motion-Control Linkage
Located on either side of the fuel tank, below the seat
are the pump-control linkages. Rotating the pump
linkage with a wrench (1/2 inch) allows fine tuning
adjustments so that the machine does not move in
neutral. Any adjustments should be made for neutral
positioning only.
WARNING
To adjust the motion control, you must run
the engine and turn the drive wheels. Contact

Keep your fingers, hands, and clothing clear
of rotating components and hot surfaces.
1. Prior to starting the engine, push the deck-lift
pedal, and remove the height-of-cut pin.

3. Raise the rear of machine up and support it with
jack stands (or equivalent support).
Note:
Raise the machine just high enough to
allow the drive wheels to turn freely.

safety switch, located under the bottom cushion
of the seat.

The switch is a part of the seat assembly.
