Neutral Adjustment

If the tractor “creeps” while the ground speed control levers are locked in NEUTRAL, then it may be necessary to adjust the linkage rod.

NOTE: Perform this adjustment on a hard, level surface such as a concrete floor.

1.Disengage the PTO, engage the parking brake and turn off the engine.

2.There are three nuts (B, Figure 35) on the linkage rod

(A). The first two are to be used together to turn the rod and the third (towards the front of the machine) is used to lock the rod in place. Loosen the jam nut that locks against the ball joint and turn the linkage rod to adjust. If the machine creeps forward, turn the rod CLOCKWISE (while standing at the rear of the machine, facing forward), if the machine creeps backward, turn the rod

COUNTER-CLOCKWISE.

3.Lock the jam nut (B) against the ball joint when neutral is achieved.

NOTE: This adjustment should not be performed while the machine is running. It may take several attempts to achieved neutral, depending upon how much the machine creeps.

Parking Brake Adjustment

1.Disengage the PTO, stop the engine, block the front wheels, remove the ignition key, and engage the parking brake.

2.Locate the brake spring (A, Figure 36).

3.With the parking brake engaged, measure the compressed spring length. The spring should be 2” to 2-1/8” (5,0 - 5,4 cm) when compressed.

4.If the spring is not within this range, release the parking brake and turn the adjustment nut (B) to compress or release the spring.

5.Engage the parking brake and remeasure the spring.

CAUTION

Do not adjust the spring to be shorter than

1-15/16” (4,9 cm) when compressed. This may damage the brake mechanism.

If this does not correct the braking problem, see your Snapper Pro dealer.
