up so the wheels are free to rotate. CAUTION: Keep hands, feet and clothing away from rotating
tires.
2. With the ground speed lever in the neutral position, start the engine.
3. Lift the neutral bail into the neutral slots in the drive levers.
4. Adjust the drive linkages by loosening or tightening the nut on the bottom of the drive linkage until
the wheels stop.

the bolt is approximately 1/16” from the top of the rear deck.
6. Push the ground speed lever forward to full speed and pull back to neutral position to be sure that
the wheels stop. This should be done several times and any readjustments made that are required.
