TRACKING ADJUSTMENTS (SZT UNITS ONLY)
When both motion control levers are fully engaged in
forward drive, the machine should move in a straight
line. If the machine tracks (veers) left or right, a
tracking adjustment must be made. Each motion
control lever is equipped with a tracking adjustment
plate. See Figure 5. Moving the plate forward or
backward adjusts the machine’s tracking:
1. If mower tracks to the left, loosen the two torx
screws on the left adjustment plate, slide plate
forward approximately 1/8”, and retighten screws.
(If plate is already as far forward as it can go,
loosen the right plate and slide back 1/8”.) Check
machine tracking and repeat as needed.
2. If mower tracks to the right, loosen the two torx
screws on the right adjustment plate, slide plate
forward approximately 1/8”, and retighten screws.
(If plate is already as far forward as it can go,
loosen the left plate and slide back 1/8”.) Check
machine tracking and repeat as needed.
3. In cases of severe tracking, one plate may
need to be moved fully back and the other moved
fully forward.
