Set Maximum Forward Travel Speed (Stop) - Step 2
1. Position the FSC lever to the most
FORWARD
position.
2. Turn the steering lever adjustment nut(s) until
2 or 3 threads are showing past the end of the
nut.
3. Loosen the jam nut at the other end of the
control rod (where it connects to the transmis-
sion control arm).
4. For each steering lever, use a wrench on the ad-
justment nut, turn the control rod counterclock-
wise (CCW) until the steering lever begins to
move backward, then make two additional
turns. Next, reverse and turn the control rod
clockwise (CW) until the
steering lever stops
moving forward
and then
make one add-
itional turn.
Tighten the jam nut.
NOTE:
Failure to make at
least one extra turn
on the control rod can place excessive loads on
the transmission internal control stops and
cause internal wear and damage to the trans-
mission. Making additional turns beyond one
turn reduces the maximum forward travel speed.

ment of the drive wheels.
NOTE:
If the engine will not start, check the op-
eration of the neutral safety switch.
