Reverse

No. 5 section spool valve is completely pushed in.
2. Check distance between bottom of pedal and foot-
rest. Distance should be approximately 3/16 in. If dis-
tance is greater or less than 3/16 in. dimension, an
adjustment to the traction control rod is required.

stop before spool is completely out, or if pedal does not
make contact with stop, an adjustment to the stop is
necessary.
3. Loosen hex nut securing threaded rod to frame. Turn
flange nut on rod to raise or lower stop (rod), while
