ADJUSTMENTS

FORWARD/REVERSE FOOTPEDAL

1. Raise front of tractor off the ground so that wheels

If not, skip this adjustment. If they do, adjust as

follows:

a) Stop engine.

b) Remove balljoint V from footpedal and let

hang.

c) Loosen nut X at the hydrostat.

d) Turn bolt F until the wheels stop turning.

e) If there is play in the spring when bolt F is

pushed or pulled, remove by adjusting nut G.

h) If the wheels still turn, stop the engine.

Loosen nut X at the hydrostat.

i) Turn balljoint V in or out on rod H.

j) Reattach balljoint V to footpedal.

3. Return to Step 2, check and repeat this procedure

if necessary.

loosened nuts are tightened.

BRAKES

Both brakes should grab equally when the parking

brake footpedal is latched. Neither brake should drag

when the brake pedal is released.

Adjust cables similarly at either end. Pedal ends of

the cables are located below the floorplate. Adjust

either cable at pedal end as follows:

1. Back off nut T.

2. Turn nut G until brake grabs when pedal latches.

3. Retighten nut T.

4. Repeat, if necessary, for second cable.

5. Repeat for either cable, if necessary, at wheel

end of cable.
