Steering Control Lever Adjustment
The steering control levers can be adjusted for operator
comfort. By loosening the cap screws that attach the upper
control lever to the lower lever (Figure 4-14), the upper control
lever can be pivoted to fit the operator’s personal preference.
The steering control levers can also be adjusted up and down.
Remove the cap screws and slide the upper control lever up or
down and align the holes in it with the holes in the lower lever.
Re-install the cap screws and tighten.
The steering control levers should be adjusted so that they
align with each other when in the neutral position.
