CONTROL LEVERS

 

 

There are two mounting positions for the control

 

 

levers, upper and lower. The lower position works

 

 

well for most people. Taller operators may need the

 

 

upper position.

 

 

To adjust the height of the control levers:

 

 

– Remove bolts A and nuts B.

 

 

– Align holes in control lever D with appropriate

 

 

 

holes in traction lever bracket C.

 

 

– Install bolts A and nuts B.

 

 

The upper mounting hole for the control levers is

 

 

slotted to allow fore-aft adjustment and to allow

 

 

alignment of the levers.

 

 

To adjust or align the control levers:

 

 

Loosen nuts B.

 

 

– Adjust control lever position.

 

 

Tighten nuts B.
