If the tractor does not come to a complete stop when the brake pedal is completely depressed, or if the tractor’s rear wheels can roll with the parking brake applied, the brake is in need of adjustment. See an authorized Service Dealer to have your brakes properly adjusted.

Seat Adjustment

Quick Adjust Seat (If so equipped)

WARNING: Before operating this machine, make sure the seat is engaged in the seat stop, stand behind the machine and pull back on seat until fully engaged into stop.

To adjust the position of the seat on models equipped with a seat adjustment lever, move the lever to the left and slide the seat forward or rearward. Refer to the Set-Up section. Make sure seat is locked into position before operating the tractor.

Knob Adjustment Seat (if so equipped)

To adjust the position of the seat on models so equipped, loosen the two knobs on the bottom of the seat. Refer to the Set-Up section. Slide the seat forward or backward as desired. Retighten the two knobs.

Standard Seat (if so equipped)

To adjust the position of the seat, loosen the two hex screws on the bottom of the seat. Slide the seat forward or backward as desired. Retighten the two screws. Refer to the Set-Up section.

Steering Adjustment

If the tractor turns tighter in one direction than the other, or if the ball joints are being replaced due to damage or wear, the steering drag links may need to be adjusted.

Adjust the drag links so that equal lengths are threaded into the ball joint on the left and right side:

1.Loosen the jam nut found on the drag link at the rear of the ball joint. See Fig. 5-3.

2.Remove hex nut on the top of ball joint. See Fig. 5-3.

3.Thread the ball joint toward the jam nut to shorten the drag link. Thread the ball joint away from the jam nut to lengthen the drag link.

4.Replace hex nut and retighten the jam nut after proper adjustment is achieved.

NOTE: Threading the ball joints too far onto the drag links will cause the front tires to “toe-in” too far. Proper toe-in is between 1/16” and 5/16”.

Front tire toe-in can be measured as follows:

1.Place the steering wheel in position for straight ahead travel.

2.In front of the axle, measure the distance horizontally from the inside of the left rim to the inside of the right rim. Note the distance.

3.Behind the axle, measure the distance horizontally from the inside of the left rim to the inside of the right rim. Note the distance.

4.The measurement taken in front of the axle should be between 1/16” and 5/16” less than the measure- ment taken behind the axle. Adjust if necessary.
