MOTION CONTROL STEERING ADJUSTMENT

1.Raise the drive wheels of the Zero Turn off of the ground. Safely block the frame in this position so it is secure. This adjustment must be made with the drive wheels turning.

2.Remove the electrical connection from the seat switch and temporarily install a jumper wire across the terminals of the wiring harness.

3.Loosen the jamnuts on the hex turnbuckle, which connects the lever control arm to the pump control arm. Note: the nuts to the front of the hex turnbuckle have left- handed threads.

4.Start the engine. Run the engine at full throttle and release brake.

5.Position the control levers in the neutral position. If the drive wheels creep (rotate) in the neutral position then lengthen or shorten the turnbuckle assembly. Make the adjustment to stop the wheel from rotating.

6.Re-tighten the nuts at the end of the hex turnbuckles and repeat the procedure for the opposite side of the unit.

7.Shut the unit off. Remove the jumper wire from the wiring harness and replace the connectors into the seat switch. Never operate the mower unless all safety switches are operating properly.

DRIVE ADJUSTMENTS

Steering and motion controls should be uniform in all forward and reverse speeds. From the reverse posi- tion the levers should automatically return to neutral when released.

CAUTION

STOP THE ENGINE BEFORE MAKING ADJUSTMENTS.
