TRACKING ADJUSTMENTS

This adjustments must be made with the drive wheels rotating.
1.

Raise the rear of the unit off of the ground until the tires can rotate freely. Secure the unit with jack
stands. CAUTION: Keep hands, feet and clothing away from rotating tires.

2.

With the blades disengaged, and the drive levers locked securely in the thumb latches, start the
engine.

3.

Adjust the motion control linkages (See Motion Control Adjustments).

4.

With the ground speed lever in the fast position, loosen the tracking knob and tracking bolt until the
threaded portion is just thru the weld nuts.

5.

Tracking knob and tracking bolt are located under the console towards the front outer corners.

6.

Move the ground speed lever to the slow position.

7.

Adjust the tracking bolt and the tracking knob until they just contact the tracking plate that is welded
to the drive levers. (See Figure 2).

8

Holding down either or both O.P. levers, unlock the drive levers from the thumb latches. The tires
should not rotate. If they do, further adjusmtnets may be needed.

9.

Once the tires stop rotating, move the ground speed lever to the fast position and back to the slow
position. Verify that the tires do not rotate. Readjust if necessary.

10. Lock the drive levers into the thumb latches. Verify that the tires do not rotate. Readjust if neces-

sary.

NOTE: A small amount of grease needs to be on the tracking plate where the tracking bolt and
tracking knob contact it. Failure to keep grease on the tracking plate may result in premature mis-
adjustments of either tracking or motion control linkages.
