Forward and Reverse Speed

Adjustment

(Figure 14)

IMPORTANT: The unit should track within 2

feet (0.61 m) of a straight line for 30 feet

(9.14 m).

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 turns to the right or left when

both steering levers are pulled back as

far rearward as possible.

NOTE: The side the unit turns toward

indicates that the wheel on that side is turning

slower than the other wheel. Either the wheel

that is turning faster needs to slow down or

the wheel that is turning slower needs to be

sped up to allow the unit to travel in a straight

line.

1. Determine which way the unit turns.

NOTE: The forward travel adjustment bolt

adjusts the forward travel of the steering

lever. The rear travel adjustment bolt adjusts

the rearward travel of the steering lever.

2. Adjust speed by:

• Turning adjustment bolt clockwise to

decrease steering lever travel.

• Turning adjustment bolt

counterclockwise to increase steering

lever travel.
