Dump Lever Adjustment
2) Handle Mounted Bucket Dump Control Lever
Two (2) adjustments/inspections are possible (These adjustments are made with the engine off and the parking
brake engaged).
A) Adjust/inspect the position of handle mounted bucket dump control lever (items 18 and 21 on the following page):
To readjust the position of the handle dump lever remove bolt/nut (28) and pivot handle (18) out of the way to access
to clevis and pin with cotter pin (23). Remove cotter pin and clevis pin that holds clevis (23) to handle (14). Loosen
hex jam nut (24) and turn clevis (23) clockwise to move lever (21) backwards; counterclockwise to move lever (21)
forward. Attach clevis (23) to handle (14) with clevis pin. Secure clevis pin to clevis with a new 1/8” X ¾” long plated
cotter pin. Reattach handle (14) to lever (18) with bolt and lock nut.
B) Adjust/inspect the drag on handle mounted dump control cable (item 22) and handle dump lever (items 18 and 21) and
pivot bolt (item 27). This lever should return easily to the neutral/bucket hold position.
1. Remove the cotter pin from the clevis pin (item 23) in the clevis on the dump valve connecting link bar (item 13).
Then remove the clevis pin. Inspect the dump valve connecting link bar to make sure it is secure on the valve, the
attaching bolt/nut is secure and the bar and valve spool move freely in all three (3) positions (dump, hold/neutral,
return bucket). Repair as required.
2. Inspect the control cable (item 22). Move the handle mounted bucket dump control lever (item 18), with the cable
item 22) attached through the full travel range. The lever must move freely with no binding or catching. The control
cable must have no physical damage, i.e., cuts in outer cable covering, missing and/or torn end boots(two(2) places),
etc. Replace the control cable if it is damaged and/or does not work freely. Replace the control cable if it has not
been replaced within the last twenty-four (24) months. When a control cable is replaced follow the assembly steps
and assembly dimensions as listed below:
A. Remove bolt/nut (28) and pivot handle (18) out of the way to access to clevis and pin with cotter pin (23).
Remove cotter pin and clevis pin that holds clevis (23) to handle (14). Do the same for the clevis attached
to the other end of the cable.
B. Remove the clevis from both ends of the cable.
C. Loosen and remove the outside 5/8”NF-18 jam nut(2) from each bulkhead fitting on cable.
D. Remove control cable from machine.
E. Replace rubber grommet in top of console where control cable passes through with cord grip (items 32 and
33) if original equipment did not include a cord grip or the existing cord grip is damaged.
F. Insert new cable in machine.
G. Install one (1) 5/8”NF-18 nut on each bulkhead fitting of cable. Thread nut to the far end of bulkhead fitting.
H. Install one (1) 1/4” NF-28 jam nut on each end of shift cable. Thread both nuts to back end of threaded rod.
I. Insert bulkhead fittings on control cable into their respective mounting holes on the handlebar (item 12) and
dump valve mounting bracket (item 15).
