DRIVE CONTROL ADJUSTMENTS

LEFT SIDE SHOWN

Control plate shown

Start your adjustments by putting the

in neutral position

drive control arms in the neutral position.

 

Remove the linkage from the control

 

plate at the Eaton hydro by removing the

 

cotter pin and washer on the under side.

 

By moving the control plate forward and

 

backwards by hand you can easily find

Hydro linkage

the neutral position on the hydro.

 

With the drive control handles in the

 

neutral position, this linkage pivot should

 

be close to straight up and down.

 

With control plate on hydro still in the

 

neutral position, try to put hydro linkage

 

back into the hole on the plate. If it won’t

 

go in without forcing one way or the

 

other, adjust threads here to make an

 

easy hookup.

 

With the control linkage once again

 

removed, move the control plate forward

 

as far as it will go.

 

Move the control handle forward until

 

this linkage contacts the adjusting bolt in

 

front of it.Again try to put the control

 

linkage in to the control plate. Do not

 

adjust the control linkage to make this

 

happen, adjust the bolt in front instead.

 

This adjusting bolt will now be used to

 

set both drive wheels to pull equally.

 

With the control handles fully forward,

 

observe which side is turning the fastest.

 

Extend the bolt rear ward to slow the

 

travel of that side until they are pulling

 

the same on both sides.
