To adjust “In” position of the steering controls:

1.

Move the levers inboard to the operating position.

Adjust the steering lever stops until the steering

levers have the desired clearance.

To adjust for straight forward tracking:

1.

Drive tractor with both control levers in the full

forward position.

2.

Stop the machine and shut off the engine.

3.

Adjust the forward stop of the control lever on

the side which appears to be faster to limit the

forward travel of the control levers until the

mower tracks in a straight line.

Note: Variations in the turf and tire pressure

can cause variations in speed and

tracking.

When all alignment adjustments are satisfactory, slide

the hold down plate and bellows down the control levers

and secure with screws.
