SERVICE / ADJUSTMENTS

TRACKING

Adjustments to the unit may need to be made if the unit does not track in a straight line.  The 
primary reason for the unit not tracking straight is incorrect or unbalanced tire pressure.  
Before making any adjustments first check and adjust the tire pressure.  DO NOT EXCEED 
MAXIMUM RECOMMENDED TIRE PRESSURE.  

ADJUST LINKAGE:  

Place steering levers outward locking them in the neutral  position.  

Turn off engine and raise seat.  Under the seat are (4)  adjustment bolts.  The two  adjustment 
bolts toward the seat mount are adjustments for the forward travel.  The two bolts toward the 
engine are for the reverse travel.  Clockwise movement for these will decrease or slow the 
travel speed of the individual side.  Counterclockwise movement will increase the travel of the 
individual side.  The linkage is factory set to maximum performance.  Adjustment is made by 
rotating the adjustment bolt clockwise on the opposite side that the unit tracks toward.  Adjust 
forward and reverse to track straight as needed.  When accomplished  adjustment to the 
steering levers may need to be done.  This is made by loosening the the two bolts on the 
steering lever and aligning with the other.  Travel of the steering levers from front to rear may 
be accomplished in the same manner.

CAUTION: 

Before performing any service or adjustments do as follows:

1.  Turn off  PTO switch.
2.  Position unit on smooth flat surface.        
3.  Place steering levers in outward, neutral-locked position.
4.  Turn ignition key “OFF”  and set parking brake.
5.  Wait for all moving parts to stop and disconnect spark plug wire.
