CARE AND MAINTENANCE

PARKING BRAKE CABLE ADJUSTMENT:

Make necessary adjustments to the T-Box to Hydrostat belt, as shown on page 47.

Position parking brake lever in the off or disengaged position.

This will allow the belt idler used on the engine to T-Box to swing fully and apply tension to the belt.

At this time, check that the cable has approximately 1-1/2 to 2” of free play.

If adjustment is required, turn the lock nut, illustrated below, to achieve a recommended 1-1/2 to 2” of free play.

NOTE: Cable must have the recommended 1-1/2 to 2” of free play with parking brake released or drive belt may slip, causing loss of power.
