10, See figure 12, With the shuttle drive control lever lock'
ed in the forward drive position, belt stop (C) should be po¬
sitioned so there is 1/16" to 1/8" clearance between each

loosen nut (D) slightly. Tighten nut (D) securely after the
adjustment is completed.

FOOT PEDAL BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
The foot pedal brake should be adjusted so that it will stop
the tractor when it is moving backward, but not so tight to
prevent the foot pedal from traveling far enough to disen¬
gage the clutch- If adjustment is requited proceed as follows ■
1. See figure 13. Use one open end wrench to hold nut (A)
stationary, and another wrench to turn nut (B) counter¬
clockwise to loosen it slightly.
2. Turning nut (A) clockwise will give more braking action
and turning it counter-clockwise will give less. The brake ad¬
justment can best be made by using the trial and error
method, and operating the tractor each rime an adjustment
has been made. The best adjustment can be made by turn¬
ing nut (A)counter-clockwise until the foot pedal brake does
not work. Then turning it clockwise, one turn at a rime,
until the tractor will stop satisfactorily when rolling back¬
ward- This is the correct adjustment. Further tightening may
cause the brake to drag, or prevent proper clutch disengage¬
ment.
3. After you are satisfied that the adjustment is correct use
one wrench to hold nut (A) stationary and another turn nut
(B) clockwise to tighten the nuts securely together.
PARKING BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
Although the transmission may help prevent the tractor from
rolling when it is in gear and the engine is stopped, the park¬
ing brake should be properly adjusted and used whenever the
operator leaves the tractor seat The parking brake is actua-
