ADJUSTMENTS
PARK BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
By turning knob on end of park brake lever you can tighten or loosen brake a small amount. To tighten turn
the knob clockwise. To loosen turn counter clockwise. If this is not enough turn clevis on the rear of the brake
cable to adjust length of cable. Do not adjust the clevis on the front of the machine.
STEERING CHAIN ADJUSTMENT
Steering Sprockets (A) should be level with each other. Check with straight
edge. Make any adjustments. Slide Idler Pulley (B) so that it is snug onto the
chain. Tighten all nuts and bolts in place.
WHEEL 'CREEP' ADJUSTMENT
‘Creep’ is when engine is running and hydrostatic transmission is in neutral,
but due to inadequate alignment, wheels still move. Do the following proce -
dures to stop this motion.
1. Lift up and support machine so rear wheels
are off the ground and can turn freely.
2. Below the seat is the engine compartment.
The shift arm (D) is on the side of the pump.
The idler arm (F) is attached to the pump
mount bracket and has a idler pulley (C) that
runs in the "y" of the shift arm. Loosen bolt
(E).
3. With engine running, move idler pulley (C)
so it centers on the shift arm (D) and 'wheel
creep' stops.
4. Tighten all fasteners and test by using foot
pedal linkage to see that 'creep' is removed.
5. Turn engine off and lower machine.
RUBBER FINGERS AND NYLON BRUSHES
In normal use, rubber fingers and nylon brushes wear out and require replacement. They will break, dislodge,
and wear prematurely if used in less than ideal conditions.
STORAGE
When storing, remove the key from the key switch to avoid unauthorized persons from operating machine.
1. Before storing clean machine thoroughly.
2. Check bolts and nuts, tighten as necessary.
3. Make all repairs that are needed and remove any debris.
4. Remove the battery, adjust the electrolyte level and recharge it. Store the battery in a dry, dark place.
5. Store in a clean and dry area, but NOT near a stove, furnace or water heater which uses a pilot light or
any device that can create a spark.
6. Engines stored over 30 days need to be protected or drained of fuel to prevent gum from forming in a
fuel system or on essential carburetor parts. Check the engine manual and follow the instructions for
the storage of the engine.
