Repeat this procedure on the opposite wheel.
Checking the Hydraulic Lines
After every 100 operating hours, check hydraulic lines and
hoses for leaks, loose fittings, kinked lines, loose
mounting supports, wear, weather and chemical
deterioration. Make necessary repairs before operating.
Note:
Keep areas around hydraulic system clean from
grass and debris build up.
Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can
penetrate skin and cause injury.
• If hydraulic fluid is injected into the skin it
must be surgically removed within a few hours
by a doctor familiar with this type of injury.
Gangrene may result if this is not done.
• Keep body and hands away from pin hole leaks
or nozzles that eject high pressure hydraulic
fluid.
• Use cardboard or paper to find hydraulic leaks.
• Safely relieve all pressure in the hydraulic
system before performing any work on the
hydraulic system.
• Make sure all hydraulic fluid hoses and lines
are in good condition and all hydraulic
connections and fittings are tight before
applying pressure to hydraulic system.
Warning
Adjusting the Handle Neutral
If motion control levers do not align, or move easily into
the console notch, adjustment is required. Adjust each
lever, spring and rod separately.
Note: Motion control levers must be installed correctly.
See Installing the Motion Control Levers in the set up
instructions.
1. Disengage the PTO, move the motion control levers to
the neutral locked position and set the parking brake.
2.
Stop the engine, remove the key, and wait for all
moving parts to stop before leaving the operating
position.
3. Unlatch the seat and tilt the seat forward.
4. Begin with either the left or right motion control lever.
5.
Move the lever to the neutral position but
not locked
(Fig. 54).
6. Pull lever back until the clevis pin (on arm below pivot
shaft) contacts the end of the slot (just beginning to put
pressure on the spring) (Fig. 54).
7.
Check where the control lever is relative to notch in
console (Fig. 53). It should be centered allowing lever
to pivot outward to the neutral lock position.

If adjustment is needed, loosen the nut and jam nut
against the yoke (Fig. 54).
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 neutral lock position (Fig. 53).
Note:
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. Repeat on the opposite side of the machine.
