Speed Balancing Adjustment
If the unit veers to the right or left when the ground
speed control levers are in either the maximum
forward (both ground speed control levers contacting
the handle bars) or reverse position (both ground
speed control levers contacting the top speed
adjustment bolt), the top speed of the ground speed
control levers can be adjusted. Only adjust the speed
of the wheel that is travelling faster.
To reduce the forward speed of the faster wheel:
Coarse Adjustment
1. Loosen the inner jam nut (A, Figure 29).
2. Turn the adjustment nut (B) CLOCKWISE to
reduce the speed.
3. Retighten the securing nut.
NOTE: If you cannot achieve the proper adjustment
using the Coarse Adjustment Procedure proceed to
the Fine Adjustment Procedure.
Fine Adjustment
1. Loosen the jam nut (A, Figure 30).
2. Loosen and remove the eyebolt hardware (B)
that secures they eyebolt (C) to the ground speed
control lever arm (D).
3. Turn the eyebolt CLOCKWISE to reduce the
speed.
4. Reinstall the eyebolt to the ground speed control
lever arm with the eyebolt hardware.
5. Retighten the jam nut when the adjustment is
complete.
To reduce the reverse speed of the faster wheel:
1. Loosen the securing nut (A, Figure 31).
2. Turn the top speed adjustment bolt (B)
COUNTER-CLOCKWISE to reduce the speed.
3. Retighten the securing nut when adjustment is
complete.
