Tractor High Speed Tracking - Cub Cadet RZT54 Operator's Manual

Tractor High Speed Tracking

If the tractor tracks to one side with both drive control levers fully
forward, adjust the control levers as follows:
1. Check for proper and balanced air pressure in both front
and rear tires. Refill tires if necessary.
2. Perform the first three steps in the previous section, Tractor
Creeping, to verify that the tractor is not creeping. If
creeping, adjust following the instructions in that section.
3. Recheck the tracking after making any adjustments to the
transmission control rods.
4. If uneven tracking persists, note which direction the tractor
is tracking.
a. If the tractor tracks to the right, adjust the control
lever stop bolt on the left side.
b. If the tractor tracks to the left, adjust the control
lever stop bolt on the right side.
5. Locate the applicable stop bolt on the left or right console.
See Fig. 7-11.
Jam Nut
6. Loosen the jam nut on the stop bolt, then turn the stop
bolt counterclockwise to make it longer. Recheck the
tracking and fine tune the adjustment as necessary.
NOTE: If the stop bolt is adjusted too far, the tracking
problem will change sides. Make fine tuning adjustments
by shortening the same bolt.
7. Tighten the jam nut against the console and reposition the
control lever as necessary to make the two control handles
even with each other.
