Handle Height
Remove the mounting hardware (A, Figure 30) and reposition the handle either up or down from its original position. You will need to readjust the handle alignment as described above.
SPEED BALANCING ADJUSTMENT
If the rider veers to the right or left when the ground speed control levers are in the maximum forward position, the top speed of each of these levers can be balanced by turning the adjustment bolt(s) (A, Figure 32). Only adjust the speed of the wheel that is traveling faster.

1.Loosen the securing nut.
2.turn the top speed adjustment bolt CLOCKWISE to reduce the speed.
3.Retighten the securing nut when adjustment is complete.
