NEUTRAL ADJUSTMENT

-NOTE-

Neutral has been set by your Scag dealer at the
time of setup and normally does not need to be
adjusted. If, however, you find that the neutral
has come out of adjustment, follow the procedure
below.

1. Raise the drive wheels off the ground and block the

caster wheels to prevent the machine from moving.

2. Make sure the speed control lever is in neutral, the

steering control levers are in the neutral latch position,
and the parking brake is on. Start the engine.

3. Release the parking brake and note if the tires are

rotating.

4. Starting on the left side of the machine, using the

adjustment wrench located on the left side of the
machine. Rotate the tracking adjustment nut counter
clockwise just until the LH wheel starts to creep
forward. Make a note of the position of the adjust-
ment nut. (See Figure 9, Page 13).

5. Turn the adjustment nut clockwise just until the wheel

turns rearward. Make a note of the position of the
adjustment nut. To adjust neutral, split the difference
between the two noted positions of the adjustment
nut. Repeat on the right side as needed.

6. Place the wrench in the holder on the left side of the

machine and turn the engine off.
