Adjusting the Controls
The factory adjusts the controls before shipping the
traction unit. However, after many hours of use, you may
need to adjust the neutral position of the traction control,
the tracking of the traction control in the full forward
position, and the reverse flow stop of the auxiliary
hydraulics lever.
Adjusting the Traction Control Neutral
Position
If the traction unit creeps forward or backward when the
traction control is in neutral and the unit is warm,
immediately complete the following procedure:
1. Park the traction unit on a flat surface and lower the
loader arms.
2. Stop the engine and remove the key.
3. Lift/support the traction unit so that both tracks are off
of the ground.
4. Open the rear access cover; refer to Opening the Rear
Access Cover, page 22.
5. Loosen the jam nuts on the traction rods, under the
control panel (Fig. 23).
