level is achieved.  To decrease the amount of pressure 
necessary to depress the Reverse Speed Control Levers 
turn the lock nut COUNTER-CLOCKWISE until the

handle bars and the reverse speed control levers, turn 
the linkage rod (A) clockwise.
  •  To decrease the amount of clearnace between the 
handle bars and the reverse speed control levers, turn 
the linkage rod counter-clockwise.
