4. Seat Operation
a. To adjust the seat position front-to-back
i. Move the lever, that is under the front of the seat, to the left. This will
release the position catch and the seat can be slid forwards and backwards.
Releasing the lever will allow the lever to catch a latching position to stop the
seat from sliding forwards or backwards. There is approximately 6 1/2" of
slide travel available.
b. To adjust the weight range of the seat
i. Turn the knob behind the back seat cushion (see Figure 8) clockwise to
increase the operator load range (counterclockwise to decrease it). There is
a load range guide sticker on the back of the seat frame (see Figure 9) to
give you an idea of about where the load range is set to. As a rule of thumb,
set the load range to something close to the weight of the operator, try the
seat, and readjust a little one way or the other if needed. When set properly,
with an operator on the seat, the seat suspension will compress when you
run over a bump – providing a smoother ride for the operator than if you did
not have any suspension.
