MAINTENANCE/SERVICE
Traction Drive: Ground Speed Lever
Friction Device Adjustment
The ground speed lever friction device maintains
lever position at the
point
in the forward/reverse
slot where it was released by the operator.
The friction
device is located at the bottom of the
ground speed
lever
(A),
under the cab.
It
has
been factory set
as
shown, where lock nut (8) is
o
to
1/8
inch
(0
to 3 mm) from the end
01
the
carriage bolt.
If the lever does not
ma
intain its position in hilly
or soft-soil conditions
it
may be desirable to
increase the holding ability
of
the friction device.
NOTE:
Increasing
the
holding ability of the
friction device also increases the amount
afforce
required
by
the operator
to
move the ground
speed lever.
To increase friction device holding ability:
1.
Tighten nut
(C)
until it "bottoms-our on the
threads at point
(D).
2. Hold nut
(C)
with a wrench and tighten lock
nut (8) against nut (C). Torque nut (8) to
60-
70 fi.lbs.
