Adjusting the Tilt

The motion control levers can be tilted fore or aft for
maximum operator comfort.

1. Loosen the upper bolt holding the control lever to

the control arm shaft.

2. Loosen the lower bolt just enough to pivot the

control lever fore or aft (Figure 23). Tighten both
bolts to secure the control in the new position.

3. Repeat the adjustment for the opposite control

lever.
