exists between the spring retainer bracket and the
adjacent nyloc nut. Tighten the jam nut above
the trunnion roller.
4. If the correct gap can no longer be achieved
because there is no clearance between nyloc
nut below the spring and the jam nut above
the trunnion or there are no threads left on the
bottom nyloc nut, the length of the brake rod can
be adjusted. Remove a pin from a yoke at either
end of the brake rod and lengthen (or shorten) the
brake rod until the correct gap can be achieved by
following steps 2 and 3.
Electric Clutch Adjustment
No adjustment necessary.
Reverse Indicator
Adjustment
1. Stop engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, and
remove key. Engage parking brake.
2. Unhook seat latch and tilt seat forward.
3. Begin with either the left or right motion control
lever. Move lever to the neutral position and pull
lever back until the clevis pin (on arm below pivot
shaft) contacts the end of the slot (just beginning
to put pressure on spring). (Figure 19).
4. Check where lever is relative to notch in console
(should be centered allowing lever to pivot
outward to the neutral lock position).
5. If adjustment is needed, loosen the nut against the
yoke and while applying slight rearward pressure
on the motion control lever, turn the head of the
adjustment bolt in the appropriate direction until
lever is centered (keeping rearward pressure on
the lever will keep the pin at the end of the slot
and allow the adjustment bolt to move the lever
to the appropriate position). Tighten lock nut.
6. Repeat on opposite side of unit.
