Raise the rear of the machine onto jack stands so the
rear wheel is off the ground.

If the rear drive wheel is turning forward, turn the
adjustment nut counterclockwise (this will lengthen the
threaded shaft). If the rear drive wheel is turning in
reverse, turn the adjustment nut clockwise (this will
shorten the threaded shaft).

floor of the operator’s compartment when the brakes are fully
engaged.
