Neutral Adjustment
Before making a neutral adjustment, the transaxles
must be warmed up, usually 5 to 10 minutes. Steps to
perform neutral adjustment:
1. Jack-up and support the rear end of the unit.
Place jack stands at the rear to stabilize the unit
(Figure 52).

2. Remove the brake arm on the transaxle, you are
performing the neutral adjustment on. In this case,
we are performing a neutral adjustment on both
transaxles. Make sure the brake arms are clear of
the cog brake system disc (Figure 53).
