Steering Handles
An adjustment range of approximately 3 in. (76 mm) is available on the steering handles - the handles can be adjusted forward or aft depending on the arm length of the operator. The handles can be adjusted by loosening the locknut at the pivot point and the locknut holding the handle in position in the adjustment slide. Adjust handles into most comfortable position and tighten both locknuts.

Steering Handle Adjustment
When the carrier frame hinge joint is properly ad- justed, the deck lock levers should move in and out of the engaged and disengaged positions freely. All four (4) hitch pins used for height adjustment should sit flush on the washers above the deck pin bushing. On a level surface, if any pin is sticking up (likely the front pins), tighten the opposite side or loosen the same side to lower the pin. Adjustments are made by loosening the jam nut and tightening or loosening the set screws on the Deck Mount Pivot Brackets. Retighten the jam nut when the adjustment is com- plete.
