Performance Adjustments
A. High Speed Tracking Adjustment
If mower tracks to one side with both lap bars in fully 
forward position:
1.
Check air pressure in all four tires:
a.
Pressure should be within specified ranges 
and balanced side-to-side.
b.
Rear tires 8-10 psi. recommended (20 psi 
MAX.)
c.
Front tires 20-25 psi. recommended (28 psi 
MAX.
2.
Check hydraulic fluid level (Ref. Engine 
owner’s manual)
3.
Verify that the mower does not creep when 
the engine is running, the lap bars are in the 
neutral position and the parking brake is 
released. (Refer to section D-3 on page 19 of 
this manual if this condition exists).
4.
Recheck the tracking after any adjustments 
based on the above.
5.
If uneven tracking persists, adjust as follows. 
(see Fig. 10)
a.
Unit tracks to the RIGHT, adjust Left lap 
bar stop bolt to make it longer.
b.
Unit tracks to the LEFT, adjust Right lap 
bar stop bolt to make it longer.
6.
Re-check the tracking and make any fine tun-
ing adjustments to the lap bar stop bolts as 
required.
Note:
 
If stop bolt is adjusted too far, track-
ing problem will change sides. Make the fine 
tuning adjustments by shortening the same 
bolt.
B. Enginge RPM Check and Adjustment
1.
Verify that the lap bars are in the neutral posi-
tion, the parking brake is on, and the PTO 
drive is disengaged.
2.
Start the mower and let it run at approximately 
half throttle for 3-5 minutes to bring the engine 
up to operating temperature.
3.
Locate the Hour Meter/Tachometer/ Service 
Minder display on the right hand operator con-
trol panel. (see Fig.1 on page 8 of the manual) 
This display defaults to Tachometer mode 
when engine is running.
4.
Move the throttle lever to the high speed posi-
tion and note the RPM reading on the display.
5.
Move the throttle lever back to the low speed 
position and again note the displayed RPM’s.
6.
Compare these noted RPM readings to the 
specifications in Table 1, for the engine that is 
on your mower.
7.
If the readings do not correspond to the 
ranges in the table, refer to the engine 
owner’s manual for the proper adjustment pro-
cedures.
8.
If adjustments per the engine operator’s man-
ual do not result in proper RPM readings, con-
tact your service technician.
9.
Note: The throttle cable sheath may shrink or 
slip over time, changing the relationship 
between the throttle lever on the left hand 
operator control panel and the throttle arm on 
the engine. To readjust the throttle cable:
a.
Make sure the engine is off, place lap bars 
in the neutral position, set the parking 
brake, and disconnect and ground both of 
the spark plug wires.
b.
Locate and loosen the cable clamp on the 
engine throttle plate.
c.
Place the operator’s throttle lever to the 
high speed position and then slide the 
cable through the clamp until the throttle 
arm is in the full throttle position. (Ref. 
Engine owner’s manual)
d.
Tighten the cable clamp.
e.
Move the operator’s throttle lever between 
high and low speed and verify that the 
engine throttle arm also moves through it’s 
full range of motion.
f.
Repeat as required to obtain proper throt-
tle adjustment.
