Control lever stops
The internal steering control lever stops (see Figure 5-4) are
designed to keep the pumps from bottoming out internally. The
external steering control lever stops (Figure 5-5) may be
adjusted to help the mower drive straight when the steering
control levers are pushed forward against the stops.
To keep the pumps from bottoming out internally use
the following procedure:
This adjustment is only required if the hydraulic pump(s)
have been replaced.
1. To make the first adjustment the mower engine must not
be running.
2. Check to make sure the steering control levers are against
the stops before the pumps are bottomed out internally.
3. To do this, gently and slowly move the steering control
levers forward and feel if there is some resistance on the
pump lever before the control levers hit the stops. Check
one side at a time. If you sense that the pump arms are
stopping the forward motion of the control arms, loosen
the jam nut on the adjustable stop of the corresponding
side, turn the stop (set screw) inward to stop the steering
control levers slightly before the pump bottoms out. Lock
in place when the adjustment is correct by re-tightening
the jam nut. Do this for each side.
To adjust the stops for driving straight when steering
control levers are against the stops during operation:
1. Determine which drive tire is rotating too fast when both
steering control levers are against the stops in the control
panel (see Figure 5-5).
2. Then, stop the mower and loosen the lock nut on the side
which is rotating too fast and turn the stop (set screw)
inward to stop the steering control lever sooner. Tighten
the lock nut on the stop and test again.
3. Repeat this procedure until unit drives straight.
NOTE:
Since this is a hydrostatic drive, variables such as
temperature of oil, efficiency of pumps and motors, tire pressure
etc. may effect the consistency of the ability to rely on the stops
to drive straight without the operator making minor steering
adjustments with the control arms.

WARNING
Do not operate the mower without plugging the mower’s
wiring harness into the seat switch. This switch is an
important part of the safety start interlock system. Serious
injury can result if the seat switch is not plugged into the
mower’s wiring harness.
