Seat Adjustment
Refer to Figure 3-8:
The seat can be adjusted forward or rearward to suit the
operator. Move seat adjustment latch to the left and then
move the seat forward or rearward to a suitable distance
that is comfortable for operating the deck lift pedal.
Return seat adjustment latch to its lock position once
seat is adjusted.
Upper Control Lever Adjustments
The control levers may be adjusted while in neutral
position for height, reach and forward travel to fit the
operator’s steering comfort zone.
Height Adjustment
Refer to Figure 3-8:
1. Adjust control levers vertically by removing the bolts,
flat washers, and locknuts that attach the upper
control levers to the lower control levers.
2. Reposition upper control levers to a height that fits
the operator’s personal preference.
3. Reassemble bolts, flat washers, and locknuts in the
same order they were removed without tightening
them.

Reach Adjustment
Refer to Figure 3-8 on page 27:
1. Pivot upper control levers forward or backward to fit
operator’s personal reach preference. If reach
comfort zone can not be achieved, then try
exchanging sides the levers are located:
a. Remove bolts, flat washers, and locknuts that
attach the upper control levers to the lower control
levers.
b. Switch right control lever with left control lever and
reassemble bolts, flat washers, and locknuts in
the same order they were removed without
tightening them.
c. Pivot upper control levers forward or backward to
fit operator’s personal reach preference.
2. Verify that the control levers align with each other
when in the neutral position and tighten locknuts to
correct torque.
Forward Travel Adjustment
Refer to Figure 3-8 on page 27:
"Reach Adjustment" instructions are for adjusting the
control levers to be equally aligned while in neutral.
However, with this adjustment, the mower may want to
steer slightly to the right or left when pushing the levers
equally forward.
Make the following adjustments if you prefer to have the
levers equally aligned while in forward travel position
instead of while in neutral position:
1. While driving forward, make the necessary steering
correction required to make the unit go straight and
take careful notice of how the upper control levers
are positioned. (The distance one lever is ahead of
the other to make the mower travel straight.)
2. Stop the mower on a level surface, place the control
levers in neutral, shut the power off and remove the
switch key.
3. Either adjust the upper trailing lever forward by the
distance it was trailing or adjust the upper leading
lever back by the distance it was leading. Tighten the
locknuts to correct torque.
Example:
If the right control lever is one inch ahead of the left
control lever, stop the unit and either adjust the right
upper control lever back one inch or adjust the left
upper control lever forward one inch.
