Adjustment
1. Stop engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, and
remove key. Engage parking brake.
2. Tilt seat forward.
3. Begin with either the left or right motion control
lever. Move lever to the neutral position and pull
lever back until the clevis pin (on arm below pivot

4. Check where lever is relative to notch in neutral
plate (should be centered allowing lever to pivot
outward to the neutral lock position).
5. If adjustment is needed, loosen the nut against the
yoke and while applying slight rearward pressure
on the motion control lever, turn the head of the
adjustment bolt in the appropriate direction until
lever is centered (keeping rearward pressure on
the lever will keep the pin at the end of the slot
and allow the adjustment bolt to move the lever
to the appropriate position). Tighten lock nut.
6. Repeat on opposite side of unit.
Weight Transfer Spring
Adjustment
Weight transfer springs are assembled from the
factory to apply the maximum amount of weight onto
the drive wheels. This setting provides the greatest
amount of traction. Some conditions may require
the rear wheel lift to be reduced. This can be done
by reducing the amount to weight transfer, which
will increase the amount of weight on the front and
rear casters.
1. Rotate the left motion control arm up and into
the operation position.
2. Locate and loosen the knob under the rear of the
left fender (see Figure 19).
