5 inches (12.7 cm)
Note:
The distance should be approximately 5
inches (12.7 cm).
4. Press the auger/impeller drive control lever slowly
toward the handgrip.
Note:
The amount of force needed to compress the
lever increases noticeably when you remove the slack
from the auger/impeller drive belt (approximately
1/2 of the lever movement). The adjustment is
correct when the force begins to increase and the
distance between the top of the handgrip and the
bottom of the auger/impeller drive control lever is 1
to 2 inches (3 to 5 cm) as shown in Figure 9.
Note:
If the force does not noticeably increase,
remove the belt cover (refer to step 2 of Replacing
the Traction Drive Belt in Maintenance) and measure
2 inches (5 cm) above the handgrip at the point
where you remove the slack from the auger/impeller
drive belt.
5. To adjust the distance:
A. Remove the clevis pin.
B. Loosen the jam nut.
C. Thread the clevis up or down to increase or
decrease the distance between the top of the
handgrip and the bottom of the auger/impeller
drive control lever (Figure 8).
6. When the adjustment is correct, install the clevis pin
and secure it in place with the cotter pin (Figure 8).
7. Tighten the jam nut to secure the clevis (Figure 8).
