Section 4 - ADJUSTMENT & REPAIR 
 
WARNING 
DO NOT attempt any adjustments, maintenance or 
service with the engine or blade running. STOP blade. 
STOP engine. Set brake. Remove key. Remove spark 
plug wire from spark plug and secure wire away from 
spark plug. Engine and components can be extremely 
hot. Avoid burns by allowing engine and components 
sufficient time to cool. 
 
4.3.2. STEERING 
ADJUSTMENT 
Should excessive “Play” be noted in the steering, 
adjust as follows: 
1.  Turn engine “OFF”. Remove key.  
2.  From left side of tractor, locate the steering sector 
below fuel tank.  See Figure 4.19. 
 
FIGURE 4.19 
 
3.  Loosen the eccentric mounting nut and rotate the 
eccentric clockwise until steering “Play” is reduced. 
See Figure 4.19. 
4.  Tighten eccentric mounting nut. 
 
4.3.3. SHIFTER 
ADJUSTMENT 
The shift linkage is set at the factory and should not 
require further adjustment. The shifter is adjusted 
properly when the speed control lever can be placed 
at rear edge of the neutral detent and the tractor 
remains absolutely stationary. If motion is detected, 
neutral adjustment will be required. DO NOT operate 
a machine that creeps when shifted to neutral.  
1.  Stop engine. Remove key. 
2.  Move speed control lever to rear edge of neutral 
detent and hold firmly. 
3.  Locate neutral adjustment nut underneath the 
right rear of the tractor. See Figure 4.20 
 
4.  Turn the neutral adjustment nut 1/4 turn clockwise 
to reduce FORWARD creep. Turn the adjustment nut 
1/4 turn counter clockwise to reduce Reverse creep. 
Only turn the adjustment nut in 1/4 turn increments. 
5.  Check for creep in neutral.  Start engine. Move 
speed control lever to rear edge of the neutral detent. 
Machine should not move. If further adjustment is 
required, stop engine and repeat Step 4.
