CARE AND MAINTENANCE
PARKING BRAKE CABLE ADJUSTMENT:
Make necessary adjustments to the T-Box to Hydrostat
belt, as shown on page 47.
Position parking brake lever in the off or disengaged
position.
This will allow the belt idler used on the engine to T-Box
to swing fully and apply tension to the belt.
At this time, check that the cable has approximately
1-1/2 to 2 of free play.
If adjustment is required, turn the lock nut, illustrated
below, to achieve a recommended 1-1/2 to 2 of free
play.
NOTE: Cable must have the recommended 1-1/2 to 2
of free play with parking brake released or drive
belt may slip, causing loss of power.
