Section 3 Adjustments

Control Lever Neutral Adjustment

Before considering any adjustment, check the tire air pressure and make certain hydraulic system oil is at operating temperature. Unequal tire pressure will cause the mower to drift to one side. Refer to “Tire Inflation Chart” on page 44.

Fine adjustment to the steering is made with the adjustable pump linkage rods located between the control lever and pump arms. Refer to Figure 3-2.

4.If wheel(s) are rotating forward, loosen the jam nuts on the pump linkage rods and rotate the rod to lengthen the steering control linkage until the wheel(s) come to a stop. Refer to Figure 3-2.Repeat for the opposite side if necessary.

NOTE: The left linkage controls the right hydraulic pump and the right linkage controls the left hydraulic pump.

5.If wheel(s) are rotating in reverse then loosen the jam nuts on the pump linkage rods and rotate the rod to shorten the steering control linkage until the wheel(s) come to a stop. Refer to Figure 3-2.Repeat for the opposite side if necessary.

6.When both wheels remain in neutral, tighten the jam nuts to lock the turnbuckle in place.

7.Test again by moving the control levers forward and backward before returning them to the neutral position. If the tires are in neutral, the unit is now ready for operation.

8.After adjusting for neutral it may be necessary to re-adjust the reverse spring and/or the control lever stop Refer to Figure 3-3and Figure 3-4.

Neutral is properly adjusted when the control levers are in the neutral position and the drive wheels are not turning.

If the mower creeps in the neutral position the control linkage may be adjusted as follows:

1.Raise and block the mower up so the drive wheels are off of the floor.

!WARNING!

Make certain mower is secure when it is raised and placed on the jack stands. The jack stands should not allow the mower to move when the engine is running and the drive wheels are rotating. Use only certified jack stands.

2.Position the control levers in the neutral position. Disengage the deck clutch.

3.Start the engine and observe which way the wheels are rotating.
