Adjusting the Steering Linkage (continued)
3.
For GreensPro 1260:
Note:
Each steering linkage rod includes 2 ball joints and 2 hex nuts. To
allow adjustment, 1 ball joint and 1 hex nut has left-hand threads, and
1 ball joint and 1 hex nut has right-hand threads. Before attempting to
loosen the hex nuts for linkage adjustment, inspect the threads on the
linkage rod to determine the thread direction.
A. Loosen the hex nuts and turn the short (front) steering rod (item 3 in
) until the front outer steering roller is aligned with the chassis
frame. Do not tighten the steering pivot rod hex nuts at this time.
