5. Start engine.

Note: Brake must be engaged and motion control

levers out to start the engine. Operator does

not have to be in the seat because of the

jumper wire being used.

6. Run engine at full throttle and release the brake.

7. Run the unit at least 5 minutes with the drive levers

at full forward speed to bring hydraulic oil up to

operating temperature.

Note: The motion control lever needs to be

in neutral while making any necessary

adjustments.

8. Bring the motion control levers into the neutral

position. Adjust pump control rod lengths by rotating

the double nuts on the rod in the appropriate

direction until the wheels do not move forward or

reverse (Fig. 376).

Note: A slight creep in reverse is acceptable.
