Adjusting the Traction Pedal
Linkage
With the traction switch in the mow position (low speed), the
traction pedal should contact the stop just before the pump is
at full stroke to prevent any damage to the pump. If it does
not, perform the following procedure:
1. Park the machine on a level surface, stop the engine,
and lower the cutting units to the floor. Remove the
ignition key.
2. Depress the traction pedal until it is at full stroke
(Figure 73). The jam nuts may have to be loosened and
the stop lowered to attain full stroke.

3. Release the traction pedal and adjust the stop another
half to full turn so that the pedal contacts the stop just
before full stroke is attained, then, tighten the jam nuts
(Figure 73).
