Drive Control
The adjustment wheel is located in the drive control handle
housing and is used to tighten or loosen the drive belt. You will
have to adjust the drive control if any of the following happens:
1. The mower does not propel itself with the drive control
engaged.
2. The mower's drive wheels hesitate with the drive control
engaged.
If either of these conditions occur, rotate the adjustment wheel
clockwise to tighten and counter-clockwise to loosen cable to
adjust the drive control. See Figure 3-9.
NOTE: For some people the drive control may not be in a
comfortable position. You can adjust the handle by tightening
the adjustment wheel.
