11. Align the hole on the end of the lower control
rod (
Figure 10 ) with the mounting pin in the
control-valve lever ( Figure 9 ).
Note:
The lever on the control tower should be
in the center of the slot (neutral position) if the
control rods are adjusted correctly (
Figure 11 ).
12. If the lever on the control tower is not in the
center of the slot, adjust it by threading the lower
rod into or out of the upper control tube. After
each lever is adjusted, check to ensure that all
levers are aligned with each other. Readjust the
levers if necessary.

13. Secure the control rods to the control-valve
levers with the cotter pins (
Figure 10 ).
14. Check the control lever operation by moving the
levers to the raise and lower positions. All of
the levers should operate freely with no binding
and should be well lubricated. Readjust the
control-tube linkages if necessary.
15. When the levers are adjusted correctly, tighten
the hex nuts on the lower control rods (
Figure
10 ).
