3.If the machine pulls to one side. Stop the mower by placing the steering control levers in the neutral position. Using the adjustment wrench located on the left side of the machine, turn the tracking adjustment nut on the slower side counter clockwise until the machine tracks straight. (See Figure 11)

4.Bring the steering control levers back to the neutral lock position and check to see that the machine does not creep forward on the adjusted wheel.

5.If the machine creeps in neutral you have moved out of the neutral band and will have to turn the tracking adjustment nut clockwise until the machine does not creep.

6.Repeat steps 1 and 2. If the machine continues to pull to one side, stop the mower by placing the steering control levers in the neutral position. Turn the tracking adjustment nut on the faster side clock- wise until the machine tracks straight.

7.If tracking cannot be achieved, contact your Scag servicing dealer.

PARKING BRAKE

1.Adjust the parking brake so that when the brake hand lever is against the stop on the handle bar, the brake levers on the brake shaft weldment are against the stops on the engine deck.

CAUTION:

Adjust the brake only enough to hold the machine. Excessive force may cause damage to the machine or brake components.

2.Adjust the brake actuator rod on either side of the machine to obtain proper brake adjustment.
