STEERING GEAR ADJUSTMENT
If there is excessive back-lash in the steering system, the
steering gear can be re-indexed to take up some slack.
Refer to Figure 1. Loosen two capscrews (A) and adjust
bracket so that gear teeth are more closely meshed.
Retighten nuts after adjustment.

IDLER PULLEY
Hydro-Gear 216-3010L Only:
See Figure 2. These units have an idler pulley installed
near the transaxle. The position of the pulley is pre-set at
the factory and does not require adjustment. (Early
model year units may have pulley brackets with slotted
pulley mounting holes.) If the belt does not disengage
when the clutch/brake pedal is depressed, move the pul-
ley toward the frame rail.
