SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENTS

TO ADJUST BRAKE (See Fig. 22)

Your tractor is equipped with an adjustable brake system

which is mounted on the right side of the transaxle.

If tractor requires more than six (6) feet stopping distance at

high speed in highest gear on a level dry concrete or paved

surface, then brake must be adjusted.

• Depress clutch/brake pedal and engage parking brake.

• Measure distance between brake operating arm and nut

“A” on brake rod.

• If distance is other than 1-1/2", loosen jam nut and turn

nut “A” until distance becomes 1-1/2". Retighten jam nut

against nut “A”.

• Road test tractor for proper stopping distance as stated

above. Readjust if necessary. If stopping distance is

still greater than six (6) feet in highest gear, further

maintenance is necessary. Contact your nearest au-

thorized service center/department.

recharged. (See "BATTERY" in the Customer Responsibili-

ties section of this manual).

If “jumper cables” are used for emergency starting, follow

this procedure:

IMPORTANT: YOUR TRACTOR IS EQUIPPED WITH A 12

GROUNDED SYSTEM. DO NOT USE YOUR TRACTOR

BATTERY TO START OTHER VEHICLES.

TO ATTACH JUMPER CABLES -

• Connect each end of the RED cable to the POSITIVE (+)

terminal of each battery, taking care not to short against
