STEP 3.
(See Figure 2)
Select a handlebar mounting
height to match the operator. The handlebar was
set at the factory in the middle position. The highest
position is for tall operators, the lowest for shorter
operators. Loosen and remove the carriage bolts,
raise or lower the handlebar to the next set of
matching holes on the mounting plate. Replace
hardware and securely tighten.
STEP 4.
(See Figure 3)
The clutch control cable is
attached to the clutch control handle and factory
adjusted for the middle handlebar mounting position.
If you have changed the handlebar height to either
the high or low position, the clutch cable must also
be repositioned and the cable readjusted.
Reposition the cable to the proper hole in the clutch
handle (shown in Figure 3) that corresponds with
the new height setting of the handlebar. Reattach
using the clevis pin and cotter pin (left hand side of
the clutch handle only).
NOTE: The other holes in
the clutch handle are used for readjustment of the
clutch after extended use. Refer to the Maintenance
section in this manual (page 15).
Readjust the cable. Loosen the locking nut on the
clutch cable adjuster and lengthen or shorten the
cable by turning the adjuster. Set the adjuster so
that the spring on the cable stretches a 1/2” to 3/4”
(13 mm to 19 mm) from its original length when
the clutch handle is engaged. When the clutch
handle is released, the machine should not “creep”
forward. Reset the locking nut.
NOTE: Additional
clutch adjustment information can be found in the
Maintenance section in this manual (page 15).
STEP 5.
Recheck of the positions of the control cables.
Check that they are not trapped or tangled around
the handlebar.
DO NOT START THE ENGINE.
Ensure that the clutch handle and throttle control
operate smoothly without binding or rubbing on any
TurnAer-26 components.
