Drive Control
The adjustment wheel is located in the drive control handle
housing and is used to tighten or loosen the drive belt. You will
need to adjust the drive control if the mower does not propel
itself with the drive control engaged or if the mower’s wheels
hesitate with the drive control engaged. If either of these
conditions occur, rotate adjustment wheel clockwise to tighten
cable or counterclockwise to loosen the cable. See Fig. 3-12.
NOTE:
For ease of adjustment, the speed control should be in the
second or third speed.
