Adjustment Procedures

Seat Adjustments

The seat and ground speed control levers should be adjusted so that operator’s elbows are supported by the arm rests when his/her hands are on the controls, and the ground speed control levers can be moved through their full range of motion without contacting the operator’s legs.

Seat Position Adjustment

The seat can be adjusted forward and back. Move the adjustment lever (A, Figure 10) towards the left hand side of the machine, slide the seat to the desired position, and release the adjustment lever.

Ground Speed Control Lever Adjustment

Operator 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 mounting bolts (A, Figure 11) and pivot the ground speed control lever(s) (C) to align with each other. When desired position is achieved tighten the mounting bolts.

To Adjust the Handle Placement: Loosen the jam nuts and adjust the placement bolt (B, Figure 11) in or out to properly adjust the lever end spacing. When desired position is achieved tighten the jam nuts.

To Adjust the Handle Height: Remove the mounting hardware (A, Figure 11) and reposition the handle either up or down from its original position. You will need to readjust the handle alignment as described above.
