TRACKING ADJUSTMENT
-NOTE-
Before proceeding with this adjustment, be sure
that the tire pressures are correct. (see page 4)
and that the neutral adjustment and the steering
control rod adjustment have been completed.
1. With the machine on a flat level surface, start the
engine and place the speed adjustment lever into the
speed that will most often be used.
2. Squeeze the steering control levers and release the
neutral latch. Slowly release the steering control
levers, allowing the machine to move forward.
3. If the machine pulls to one side, turn the tracking
adjustment knob on the slower side counter clock-
wise until the machine tracks straight
(see Figure 6).
4. Bring the steering control levers back to the neutral
lock position and check to see that the machine
does not creep forward on the adjusted wheel.
5. If the machine creeps in neutral you have moved out
of the neutral band and will have to turn the tracking
adjustment knob clockwise until the machine does
not creep.
6. Repeat steps 1 and 2. If the machine pulls to one
side, turn the tracking adjustment knob on the faster
side clockwise until the machine tracks straight.
8. If tracking cannot be achieved, contact your Scag
servicing dealer.
