Angle Adjustment
The foot pedal angle can be verified and / or adjusted to
provide operator comfort and proper pedal travel clear-
ance.
Note: If the operator feels discomfort due to current pedal
angles, they may be adjusted to their preference. Be sure
to check for pedal travel clearance afterward. Always
maintain a minimum of 3/8’’ (6mm) of thread into the
cable clevis and eyelet cable ends. (fig. C3563)
1 Make sure the cable ends are screwed onto the cable
threads a minimum of 3/8’’ (6mm). (fig. C3563)
2 Place an angle finder on the inner ROPS frame bot-
tom of the loader to find the base measurement. Note the
reading. (fig. C3564)

base angle measurement taken previously. Example: If the
base angle measured 3º, add or subtract that angle from
the angle measured on the pedal.
