Ground Speed Control Lever Adjustment

The control levers can be adjusted in three ways. The alignment
of the control levers, the placement of the levers (how close the
ends are to one another) and the height of the levers can be
adjusted.
To Adjust the Handle Alignment
Loosen the mount bolts (A, Figure 36) and pivot the lever(s) (C)
to align with each other.

To Adjust the Handle Placement
Loosen the jam nuts and adjust the placement bolt (B) in or out
to properly adjust the lever end spacing.
To Adjust the Handle Height

up or down from its original position. You will need to readjust
the handle alignment as described above.

Speed Balancing Adjustment

If the rider veers to the right or left when the ground speed
control levers are in the maximum forward position, the top
speed of each of these levers can be balanced by turning the
adjustment bolt(s) (A, Figure 37). Only adjust the speed of the
wheel that is traveling faster.

To Reduce the Speed of the Faster Wheel
1. Loosen the securing nut (B).
2. Turn the top speed adjustment bolt counter-clockwise to
reduce the speed.
3. Retighten the securing nut when adjustment is complete.
WARNING
DO NOT adjust the tractor for a faster overall speed
forward or reverse than it was designed for.

Mowing Height Adjustment

The cutting height adjustment pin (A, Figure 38) controls the
mower cutting height. The cutting height is adjustable between
1-3/4" (4,4 cm) and 5" (12,7 cm) in 1/4" (0,64 cm) increments.
