CARE AND MAINTENANCE

STEERING CONTROL ADJUSTMENTS (continued):

D.

Adjusting for Straight Forward Tracking:

In large open area, actuate the control handles into the full forward position.  If

the mower veers in either direction (left or right) some adjustment is necessary.

1.

If the mower veers to the right, then the right hydrostat needs to be

sped up.  If the

mower veers to the left, then the left hydrostat

needs to be sped up.

2.

Stop the machine and shut off the engine.

3.

Slightly loosen the bolt at the lower end of the upper linkage assembly

on the side that

is slower.  Using a 1/8" Allen wrench turn the

setscrew 1/4 turn in.  It may take several

test drives to get the

mower to track straight forward.

4.

Once the tracking is to the operator's liking, completely tighten the

bolt on the control

linkage assembly that was loosened

earlier.

5.

Recheck to make sure neutral adjust has not been effected, see

procedure A.
