Section 4 - ADJUSTMENT & REPAIR 

 

WARNING 

DO NOT attempt any adjustments, maintenance or 
service with the engine or blades running. STOP 
blades. STOP engine. Set brake. Remove key. 
Remove spark plug wire from spark plug and secure 
wire away from spark plug. Engine and components 
can be extremely hot. Avoid burns by allowing engine 
and components sufficient time to cool. Wear heavy 
leather gloves when handling or working around 
cutting blades. Blades are extremely sharp and can 
cause severe injury.

(Continued from previous page) 

4. 

Turn the neutral adjustment nut 1/4 turn 

clockwise to reduce FORWARD creep. Turn the 
adjustment nut 1/4 turn counter clockwise to reduce 
Reverse creep. Only turn the adjustment nut in 1/4 
turn increments. 

5.  Check for creep in neutral. 

Start engine. Move 

speed control lever to rear edge of the neutral detent. 
Machine should not move. If further adjustment is 
required, stop engine and repeat Step 4. 

 

4.3.4. 

TRACTION DRIVE BELT ADJUSTMENT 

Should a gradual loss of traction be noticed, it may be 
necessary to adjust the traction drive belt tension. 
Adjust as follows: 

1. 

Move tractor to a firm, level surface. 

2. 

Turn engine "OFF". Remove key.  

3. 

Remove mowing deck. 

4. 

Remove the traction drive belt stationary idler 

mounting bolt. See Figure 4.12. 

5. 

Move the stationary idler one hole towards right 

side of tractor for more belt tension. 

 

NOTE: 

Note the orientation of belt guide and make certain 

it remains in the same orientation after moving idler. Should 
less tension be required move stationary idler towards right 
side of tractor. See Figure 4.12. 

 

6. 

Secure stationary idler with mounting bolt. 

7. 

Place spark plug wire onto spark plug. Set park 

brake. Start engine. 

8. 

Visually inspect traction drive belt for movement. 

When properly adjusted, the traction drive belt should 
not have any movement or rotation with the engine 
running and park brake engaged. 

9. 

Should movement be present, readjust traction 

drive belt to release belt tension as described in 
previous instructions.
