Forward Speed Control Friction Lock
The FSC friction lock is designed to hold the se-
lected forward travel speed when the steering le
vers are moved and yet the friction is not too heavy
to make moving the FSC control dicult (too much
friction). The procedure for checking the FSC fric
tion lock is as follows:
1. With the engine o, place the FSC in the full
FORWARD position and pull both steering le
vers back; the FSC lever should not move. If
the FSC lever moves back when the steering
levers are pulled back, the friction needs to be
increased.
2. With the steering levers held back, move the
FSC lever back from the FORWARD position.
With a proper amount of friction adjusted, the
FSC lever should move back with a slight
amount of resistance (friction). If the FSC lever
movement is “sti”, the friction needs to be
decreased.
If the FSC friction lock needs to be adjusted, refer to
ADJUSTMENTS for Step 7 - Forward Speed Con-
trol Friction Adjustment in this section.
