control adjustment. See Figure 3.1.
NOTE: Complete neutral control adjustment pro-
cedures can be found in the 2004 Cub Cadet
Technical C.D.
3.2. If the tractor fails to achieve full ground speed,
check the adjustment of the linkages that control
the hydrostatic drive system.

3.3. Confirm that full travel is achieved in the forward
direction. See Figure 3.3.
3.4. Confirm that full travel is achieved in the reverse
direction. See Figure 3.4.
3.5. If the brake and drive pedals “fight” with each
other, the drive control rod is out of adjustment.
See Figure 3.5.
NOTE: Isolate the hydrostatic drive unit from the
linkage, and confirm the correct adjustment of
the neutral return before adjusting the linkage.
NOTE: After correct neutral return adjustment is
established, adjust the ferrule on the drive con-
trol rod so that it rests lightly against the front
edge of the slot that it fits into when the parking
brake is engaged.
