MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
7.5.2 STEERING WHEEL & LOCK ADJUSTMENT
Adjust the steering cable so that the wheel will be centered
when released. Ensure that the steering wheel has unrestricted
rotation to the stops located at the bottom of the steering wheel
housing. Adjust cable if necessary.
Tighten all nuts and bolts associated with the steering sys-
tem. Ensure that all cotter pins and hair pins are secured and
free from wear.
Vehicles produced from S/N 0108063 are equipped with a
steering lock. This lock system ensures that the steering wheel
can not be turned until the armrest is in the lowered position.
With the armrest DOWN ensure that the steering lock pin is
not engaged or making contact with the adjustable plate on
the hydrostat unit. Adjust if necessary for sufficient clear-
ance between the two.
To disconnect or adjust the spring pin end of the cable, re-
move or loosen the 2 fasteners securing the bracket to the
welded tab on the upper cross brace assembly. Slide the bracket
until approximately 1/8” protrudes through the locking slide
plate when the armrest is in the upright position (Figure 7-
19).
Figure 7-19. Adjusting the spring pin end of the cable.
Generally, when the cable is fastened at the bracket on
the upper cross brace assembly, if it is installed with an
equal amount of threads on either side of the welded
tab, the cable will be properly set. The bracket need only
then be slid within the slots to achieve the 1/8” meas-
urement required through the locking plate when the
armrest is in the up position (Figure 7-20).

7.5.3 HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISSION DRIVE BELT
Loosen the two bolts securing the hydrostat against the vehi-
cle transmission. Rotate the hydrostat towards the engine to
loosen the drive belt. Position a new belt over the engine
pulley and then the hydrostat drive pulley. Rotate the hydro-
stat to
tension the belt so that 6 lbs. of force (2.7 kg or 27N)
causes a deflection of .21" (5.3 mm) at a point midway be-
tween pulleys. Torque bolts to 20 lb. ft. (N.m).
7.6 SHIFTING SYSTEM
7.6.1 SHIFT CABLE ADJUSTMENT
1. Locate the shift rods at the rear of the transmission on
the passengers side.
2. Shift gear box into neutral, ensuring that the shift rods
are aligned.
3. At the shift box, locate the cables where they are fas-
tened at the entry point of the shift box assembly.
4. Remove the shift gate on the shift box and check to make
sure that the shift blocks are aligned with the shift yoke
assembly when in the neutral position.
5. Install the shift gate temporarily and shift the gear lever
into low gear. The gear lever should not be making any
contact with the gate plate. There should be at least a
3/8” clearance between lever and gate.
You may need to rotate the clutch to allow the shifting
mechanism within the transmission to permit the lever
to move.
