2-SPEED OPTION SETTING<br />
WARNING<br />
POTENTIAL FOR SERIOUS INJURY<br />
Certain procedures require the vehicle engine<br />
to be operated and the vehicle to be raised off<br />
the ground. To prevent possible injury to the servicing<br />
technician and/or bystanders, insure the<br />
vehicle is properly secured.<br />
The 2-speed option mechanism on the transaxle<br />
is designed to increase the axle speed when<br />
the 2-speed control arm (168) is moved from<br />
its vertical position. Follow the procedure below<br />
to properly set the 2-speed option on the<br />
transaxle:<br />
Note: THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD ONLY<br />
HAVE TO BE DONE IF THE THE LOCK<br />
DOWN ARM (165) NEEDS REPLACED<br />
OR A NEW SIDE HOUSING HAS TO BE<br />
INSTALLED. IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO<br />
EVER REMOVE THE LOCK DOWN ARM<br />
(165) FOR ANY OTHER REASON DURING<br />
THE DISASSEMBLY OF THIS UNIT.<br />
1. Confirm the transaxle is in the operating<br />
mode (bypass disengaged). Raise the<br />
vehicle’s drive tires off the ground to allow<br />
free rotation.<br />
Note: It may be necessary to remove the<br />
drive tire from the axle hub to access<br />
the linkage control.<br />
2. Remove the Original Equipment Manufacturer’s<br />
(OEM’s) control linkage at the 2-speed<br />
control arm (168). Position the 2-speed<br />
control arm (168) so it is in the normal speed<br />
(vertical) position. Refer to Figure 5.<br />
3. Start the engine and increase the throttle to<br />
full engine speed.<br />
4. Stroke the transaxle control arm (54) until<br />
183 rpm axle speed is obtained. Refer to<br />
Figure 6.<br />
5. Rotate the 2-speed control arm (168) and<br />
lock down arm (165) together until the<br />
axle speed reaches 265 rpm. Lock down<br />
the 2-speed lock down arm (165) with the<br />
2-speed control arm (168) against the<br />
stop.<br />
6. Stop the engine and reconnect any OEM<br />
linkage.<br />
