Tracking Adjustment

CAUTION:

Stop the engine and remove the key from the ignition before making any adjustments. Wait for all moving parts to come to a complete stop before beginning work.

CAUTION:

The engine and drive unit can get hot during operation causing burn injuries. Allow engine and drive components to cool before making any adjustments.

-NOTE-

If after making the adjustments as outlined do not correct the tracking or neutral, contact your local Authorized Scag Power Equipment Dealer.

6.3THROTTLE CONTROL AND CHOKE ADJUSTMENTS

These adjustments must be performed by your Scag dealer to ensure proper and efficient running of the engine. Should either need adjustment, contact your authorized Scag service center.

6.4 BELT ADJUSTMENT

WARNING:

-NOTE-

Before proceeding with this adjustment, be sure that the caster wheels turn freely and that the tire pressure in the drive wheels is correct. If the tire pressure is not correct, the machine will pull to the side with the lower pressure.

1.If at full speed the mower pulls right, it is an indication that the left wheel is turning faster than the right wheel. To adjust this condition, proceed as follows:

A.Stop the machine and place the steering control levers in the neutral position. Turn the tracking adjustment bolt for the LH pump inward (clockwise). This will cause the control rod to stroke the LH pump less, slowing down the LH wheel. (See Figure 6-3, Page 23).

2.If at full speed the mower pulls left, it is an indication that the right wheel is turning faster than the left wheel. To adjust this condition, proceed as follows:

A.Stop the machine and place the steering control levers in the neutral position. Turn the tracking adjustment bolt for the RH pump inward (clockwise). This will cause the control rod to stroke the RH pump less, slowing down the RH wheel. (See Figure 6-3).

Before removing any guards, shut the engine off and remove the ignition key.

All drive belts and cutter deck belts are spring loaded and self-tensioning. The belts should be checked periodically for proper alignment and wear.

6.5 BELT ALIGNMENT

Belt alignment is important for proper performance of your Scag mower. If you experience frequent belt wear or breakage, see your authorized Scag service center for belt adjustment.
