Gearshift Linkage Adjustment
If the gearshift lever is hard to shift, it does not
necessarily mean that the cable needs
adjustment. The following can also cause
hard shifting:
• A damaged, dirty, rusty, or pinched shift
cable. For these problems, inspect, clean,
adjust, or replace the cable as needed.
• Internal transmission problems. If you
suspect a transmission problem, see your
AMADAS/John Deere dealer.
To adjust the linkage:
1.
Shift the transmission into second gear.
The gear shift lever should be leaning
slightly forward when in second gear.
2. From under the cab, loosen nut (A) and
adjust balljoint (B) to get 237 mm (9 5/16
in.) in distance C. Do NOT adjust clamp.
3. At the transmission, shift arm (E) should be
straight down as shown. Loosen nut (F)
and adjust balljoint (G) until the stud on the
balljoint aligns with the hole in the shift arm
(E).
4. Measure point H. It should be 237 mm (9
5/16 in). Do NOT adjust clamp (I).
