3. Adjust Steering Lever Forward or

Forward Speed Adjustment
(Figure 23)
The travel of the steering levers may need
adjustment if the unit turns to the right or left
when both steering levers are pushed as far
forward as possible. The unit should track
within 0.6 m (2’) of a straight line for 9.1 m
(30’).
The side the unit turns toward indicates that
the drive wheel on that side is turning slower
than the opposite drive wheel. Either the
wheel that is turning faster needs to slow
down or the wheel that is turning slower
needs to speed up to allow the unit to travel in
a straight line.
IMPORTANT: Check tire pressure before
making adjustments. Incorrect or inconsistent
pressure between tires may cause unit to
track incorrectly.
1. Determine which way the unit turns.
2. Loosen jam nut on the adjustment bolt.
3. Adjust speed by:
• Turning adjustment bolt clockwise to
decrease steering lever travel.
• Turning adjustment bolt
counterclockwise to increase steering
lever travel.
4. Tighten the jam nut.
NOTICE: Reverse speed cannot be adjusted.
If unit tracks excessively left or right in
reverse, see your dealer for repair.
