Maintenance (continued)
Brake Interlock Switch Adjustment
Set parking brake. Adjust brake interlock
switch (K, Fig. 6-16) at screws (J) as
required to provide a 1/16” to 3/16” gap.
Gear Drive Shift Linkage Adjustment
With gear shift lever in “N” (neutral)
position, it should be possible to push unit
forward or backward. With gear shift lever
in “R” (reverse) or “1st” position,
transmission should catch and hold when
unit is pushed. Adjust, if necessary, as
follows:
• Place gear shift lever into “N” (neutral)
position.
• Loosen nut (X, Fig. 6-17) securing the
shift shaft arm (Y) to the shift lever. Rotate
the shift shaft arm (Y) slightly forward if
the unit runs forward when in neutral.
Rotate the shift shaft arm (Y) slightly
backward if the unit runs in reverse when
in neutral. See detail. Fig. 6-17. Tighten
nut (X). Check adjustment. Repeat as
necessary.
Gear Drive Shift Cable Adjustment
Place gear shift lever into “1st” gear
position. Gear shift lever should be resting
on outside quadrant edge (W, Fig. 6-18).
Pul! gear shift lever (L, Fig. 6-17) in
toward center of unit until slack in shift
cable (M, Fig. 6-17) is taken up. Adjust
shift cable at (Z & 0, Fig. 6-17) until a 3/8”
gap between outside of shift lever and
shift quadrant (Fig. 6-18) exists.
Hydrostatic neutral adjustment is set at
the factory. If the tractor creeps forward or
backward while hydrostatic pedal is in the
neutral position, adjust as follows:
• Set parking brake.
