below pivot shaft) contacts the end of the slot
(just beginning to put pressure on the spring)
(Figure 57).
7. Check where the control lever is relative to
notch in console (Figure 57). It should be
centered allowing lever to pivot outward to the
neutral lock position.
8. If adjustment is needed, loosen the nut and
jam nut against the yoke (Figure 58).
9. Apply slight rearward pressure on the motion
control lever, turn the head of the adjustment
bolt in the appropriate direction until the
control lever is centered in the neutral lock
position (Figure 58).

Keeping rearward pressure on the
lever will keep the pin at the end of the slot and
allow the adjustment bolt to move the lever to
the appropriate position.
10. Tighten the nut and jam nut (Figure 58).

Maintenance
Checking the Hydraulic

• Before the engine is first started.
• After the first 8 operating hours.
• After every 25 operating hours.
Fluid Type: Mobil 1 15W-50 synthetic motor oil or
equivalent synthetic oil.
Important:
Use oil specified or equivalent.
Other fluids could cause system damage.

There are two ways of checking the
