The seat spring has three holes to provide a forward or backward adjustment of the seat. To check for the best seat position, sit in the seat and

work the foot pedal. If adjustment is needed, unfasten the seat and replace it in a forward or backward hole. See figure 3.

STEERING WHEEL

First, place the steering shaft cover over the

steering shaft. Then position the steering wheel on top of the steering shaft. You will note there is

a hole in the steering wheel hub, in the steering shaft cover and in the steering shaft. Align these three holes and secure the three parts by driving a spring pin (A) through the three aligned holes.

(Alignment can be simplified by inserting a punch or small rod through the three holes from the side opposite the spring pin insertion side.) See figure

2.

Place seat on spring and secure with lockwasher

(8) and hex nut (C). See figure 4.
