If the rotation stops, adjust the ferrule up or down
the control rod as necessary to align with the hole
in the transmission control arm, Re-insert the
ferrule into the hole in the control arm and secure
with the internal cotter pin.
•
If necessary, repeat the previous two steps to
adjust the other transmission control rod.
•
Lower the tractor and remove the jack.
TRACTOR HIGH SPEED TRACKING
If the tractor tracks to one side with both drive control
levers fully forward, adjust the control levers as
follows:
•
Check for proper and balanced air pressure in
both front and rear tires. Refill tires if necessary.
•
Perform the first three steps in the previous sub-
section,Tractor Creeping, to verify that the tractor
is not creeping. If creeping, adjust following the
instructionsin that sub-section.
•
Recheck the tracking after making any adjust-
ments to the transmissioncontrolrods.
•
If uneven tracking persists, note which direction
the tractoris tracking.
- If the tractor tracks to the right, adjust the
controllever stop bolt on the left side.
- If the tractor tracks to the left, adjust the control
lever stop bolt on the right side.
•
Locate the applicable stop bolt on the left or right
console.See Figure 28.
