Adjusting the Pedal for
Forward
The pedal must be adjusted for forward if the jam nuts on
the control rod are loosened or if the pedal is removed.
1. Park the machine on a level surface, turn the engine off,
and engage the parking brake.
2. Make sure that the pump is in neutral.
3. Loosen the jam nuts on the control rod (Fig. 27).

4. Press down on the rear of the pedal until the pedal
contacts the footrest.
5. Adjust the jam nuts to allow full stroke of the pump,
slightly deflecting the control rod when the pedal is at
full stroke.
Adjusting the Brake Linkage
The brakes have been set at the factory for optimum
performance, but after use and wear an adjustment may be
required.
1. Park the machine on a level surface, turn the engine off,
and block the wheels.
2. Loosen the jam nut on the actuator rod (Fig. 28).
Remove the cotter pin retaining the actuator rod.
Increase or decrease the actuator rod length by rotating
the rod. Install the actuator rod using a new cotter pin
and secure the jam nut.
3. If modifying the actuator rod length does not improve
brake performance, adjust both the left and right
adjustment rods equally using the same procedure
described in step 2.

Adjusting the Lift Lever
If the implement fails to float when the lift lever is in the
detent position, an adjustment to the lever guide is required.
1. Park the machine on a level surface, turn the engine off,
and engage the parking brake.
2. Disconnect the implement from the lift cylinder and
extend the cylinder part way.
3. Loosen the capscrews and locknuts securing the lever
guide (Fig. 29) to the valve shroud.
4. Move the lever guide until the cylinder moves freely
when the lift lever is in the detent position.
5. Tighten the capscrews and locknuts locking the
adjustment.
