RAKE ADJUSTMENT
The adjustment will need to be made while the
parking brake is engaged.
For mechanical drive models:
For hydrostatic drive models (Peerless):
Loosen the nut (1) which holds on the bracket (2)
and turn the nut (3) until the length of the spring
(4) is 46 - 48 mm inside the washers.
When the adjustment has been made, tighten the
nut (1).
For hydrostatic drive models (Tuff-Torq):
Turn the nut (5) until the length of the spring (6) is
45 - 47 mm inside the washers.
Do not screw to below these
values to avoid overloading the brake unit.
A
DJUSTING DRIVE ENGAGEMENT
For mechanical drive models:
If you should notice that forward drive power
has dropped, you can adjust the regulating
screw (1) which is accessible through the
hatchway beneath the seat. Undoing the
screw and then lengthening the spring (2) will
increase the drive ability.
The best length for the spring is 86 mm mea-
sured from the outer ends of the spring. Once the adjustment has been made,
tighten the locknuts (3). Excessive spring tension may cause too sudden
engagement of the clutch, resulting in the machine tipping up.
