Straight Tracking Adjustment - Step 5
1. Sit in the seat, start the engine, set throttle at full
speed, and with the FSC in the
NEUTRAL-PARK
position check for movement of either drive wheel
(if either wheel moves backward or for ward, refer
to the
Neutral Position Adjustment - Step 3
and
readjust).
2. Check for straight ground tracking on a level sur-
face (with hands off the steering levers). Set the
FSC at several different speeds and observe if
the mower moves in a straight line (use cement
joint or other line on ground for reference).
3. If travel is not straight, shorten the control rod of
the slow side (adjust in 1/8 turn increments) to
match the faster side while maintaining the neu-
tral position. If straight tracking and neutral can
not be achieved, turn the control rod back to
where neutral can be achieved.
4. Lengthen the control rod of the faster side (adjust
in 1/8 turn increments) to match the slower side
while maintaining the neutral position.
5. If the forward travel is straight throughout the
speed range, except at maximum speed - place
the FSC in full
FORWARD
, turn the set screw in
the Transmission Control Arm, of the faster side,
in until it contacts the hydro stud. (Turning the
set screw in slows the wheel.)
Turn the set screw
in an additional 1/8 turn.
Recheck for equal full
for ward speed. Adjust this set screw until equal
full forward speed is achieved. Tighten the jam
nut.
