sets of mounting holes the two rubber spacers are placed over
the studs at (B) and used between the seat and seat deck. If
the seat is to be positioned in either of the two rearward po¬

under the seat deck. Line the seat up with the desired holes
in the seat deck, and install the rubber spacers according to

CLUTCH FREE TRAVEL
See figure 11. The clutch free travel is correct when there is
1/3" between the nuts (A) and the rod guide when the
clutch brake pedal is released and pulled rearward as far as
it will go. If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
1. Raise the seat deck ag shown in figure 10, by following
the instructions under Raising the Seat Deck on pagelO.
2. Using two wrenches hold the forward nut at (A) station¬
ary with one wrench while turning the rearward nut counter-
clockwise slightly with the other to separate them.
3. Pull rearward on the clutch brake pedal to insure it has
returned completely to the engaged position.
4. Turn the forward nut at (A) as necessary so that the dis¬
tance between it and the rod guide is 1/3” as shown in
figure 11.
5. Using two wrenches hold the forward nut at (A) station¬
ary while turning the rear one clockwise to tighten the two
nuts together securely.
6. Lower the seat deck.
HYDROSTATIC NEUTRAL ADJUSTMENT
If the tractor tends to creep {move slightly forward or back¬
ward} when the hydrostatic speed control lever is in the neu¬
tral position, proceed as follows:
1. Raise the seat deck by following instructions under Rais¬
ing the Seat Deck on page ID.
Z See figure 30. Raise the spring lock and move the gear
shift lever to the neutral position as shown.
3. See figure 11. Loosen the two locking nuts (B) on either
end of tumbuckle (C).
4. Start the tractor engine and set the engine speed control
so it runs at about 1/3 full speed
5. Make sure the hydrostatic speed control lever (Figure 2,
item B) is in the NEUTRAL position.
6. CAUTION: USE CARE WHEN WORKING AROUND
MOVING BELTS AND PULLEYS TO KEEP HANDS,
CLOTHING, ETC., FROM BEING CAUGHT IN THEM.
Use an open end wrench to rotate the tumbuckle (Figure 11,
item C) until the brake drum (Figure 12, item A} does not
rotate. When the brake drum does not rotate when the en¬
gine is running at 1/3 full speed, the hydrostatic neutral ad¬
justment is correct,
7. Shut off the tractor engine.
