In addition, the adjustment wheel may also be used to determine the position in which the drive clutch control is engaged. If it is more comfortable to have the drive engaged with the lever further away from the handle, tighten the drive belt.
Make certain to retest the unit for neutral as instructed in the operation Section. Move the adjustment wheel in the opposite direction to loosen the drive belt if necessary.
