STEERING CONTROL ADJUSTMENTS

(continued):

To adjust “In” position of the steering controls

1. Move the levers inboard to the operating position.

2. 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 levers 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.
