4. Adjust the tracking stop bolts to increase or
decrease forward speed on each side. Loosen
the jam nuts and turn the stop bolt clockwise
(in) to reduce forward speed, counterclockwise
(out) to increase speed. Tighten jam nuts.
5. Drive the machine and check the full forward
tracking.
6. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until desired tracking is
obtained.
NEUTRAL ADJUSTMENT
The hydraulic pumps contain a return to neutral
mechanism (RTN) which returns the hydraulic
pump to the neutral position when the operator
releases the control handles. The control handles
are connected to the pump RTN by a threaded
control rod. The pump RTN mechanism should not
normally require adjustment. If the control handles
require adjustment to align with the neutral slot
when the pump has returned to neutral,
1. Lift Leg Cushion.
2. Lengthen or shorten the control rod(s) by
turning the rod until control lever aligns with
neutral slot.
3. Lower Leg Cushion.
If the pump RTN requires adjustment, please refer
to Parker HTE manual for adjustment procedure.
Forward tracking adjustment may be required after
adjustment of control rod(s).
CASTER PIVOT BEARINGS PRE-LOAD AND
LUBRICATION
Tighten the nut until it is snug then back it off 1/8-
1/4 turn. This will set the preload on the bearing.
You should feel a slight drag as you rotate the
caster fork clockwise and counterclockwise.
Lubricate front caster pivots once a year. Remove
the protective cap from the top. Pump grease into
the fitting until grease is seen coming up through
the bearing. Do not over fill. Do not fill the
housing. Reinstall the protective cap and tap into
place.
