service or repairs with the engine running. Stop

4.5 JOYSTICK 

ADJUSTMENTS 

4.5.1.   Neutral Position Adjustments 

The joystick controls the movement and stopping of the 
unit. Move the joystick to the center or neutral position 
to stop mower. 

IMPORTANT:

 Always return the joystick 

with hand assistance to the neutral position. If mower 
does not come to a complete stop or has any 
movement when joystick is moved to the neutral 
position, adjustment must be made. It is recommended 
that these adjustments be made by an authorized 
SNAPPER dealer. But, adjust joystick cables as follows 
after removing fenders: 

 

1.

  If mower tracks to the right, loosen bottom nut 

first on the right cable. Turn top nut clockwise in a 
1/8 increment then retighten lower nut to secure 
cable. Check tracking of mower. Repeat this 
adjustment if necessary. See Figure 4.1. 

2.

 If mower tracks to the left, loosen bottom nut 

first on the left cable. Turn top nut clockwise in a 
1/8 increment then retighten lower nut to secure 
cable. Check tracking of mower. Repeat this 
adjustment if necessary. See Figure 4.1. 

 

4.5.2.   Forward Speed Adjustments 

The joystick is equipped with a forward speed governor 
plate (see Figure 4.1a).  Moving the plate in or out 
adjusts the maximum forward speed the unit can 
achieve.  To adjust the plate: 

 

1.

  Loosen the two front torx screws on the joystick 

control. 

2.

  To increase maximum forward speed, slide the 

plate further out from the joystick.  To decrease 
maximum forward speed, slide the plate further in 
toward the joystick 

3.

 Be sure to retighten torx screws after 

satisfactory speed is achieved.
