• The forward-neutral-reverse gear selector is on the
left rear fender of the tractor. See Figure 5.12.
• A spring under the fender attached between the
seat frame bracket and the shift lever keeps inward
pressure on the selector to give it positive feel.
See Figure 5.13.
• The selector pivots on a frame-mounted bracket,
transferring the motion to a push-pull detent rod
connected to the transaxle.
• The linkage contacts the reverse safety switch
tang when the tractor is in reverse.
See Figure 5.14.
• The linkage is adjustable.
